    About Towed by Toad

    An American Library Association Geisel Honor book • An American Library Association Notable Children’s Book

    Hop on a tow-truck ride with Toad as he learns that everyone needs help sometimes, even the helpers! The first in a picture book series for fans of Frog and Toad and Little Blue Truck!

    “No time, Pop! Can’t stop!”

    Toad and his tow truck are always on the move to lend a hand to anyone who needs help. Whether it’s a flat tire or engine trouble, it’s Toad to the rescue!

    Pop does his best to try to get Toad to slow down and take care of himself, but there always seems to be someone else who needs to be towed by Toad. How can he say no?

    Toad is so used to being the problem solver that when his tow truck breaks down, he does everything he can to fix it himself — and can’t! What happens when the helper needs help? 

    Playful, funny and refreshingly sweet, Towed by Toad is a peppy read-aloud full of fascinating vehicles and endearing characters.
