Praise
“The unusual perspectives and broad humor of Austin’s over-the-top airbrush illustrations in shades of violet and gold capture Reba Jo’s comical disgust as she tries to wiggle out of her unpalatable bargain as well as the ugly toad’s insouciant charm as he connives his way free from his curse.”—Publishers Weekly
“An entertaining version of ‘The Frog Prince’ with a Texas twist.”—School Library Journal
“This is fun and thorough. Hopkins’ telling sizzles with southwestern panache. . . . Fractured fun at its best.”—Booklist
