Publisher's Summary

From Arnold Lobel, the beloved author and illustrator of the Newbery Honor and Caldecott Honor award-winning Frog and Toad books, comes a sweet, timely twist on a classic fable.

One morning Grasshopper finds a lovely road to follow. Off he goes on his journey, past plenty of busy characters. They wonder why Grasshopper isn’t as busy as they are. But Grasshopper - well, he is happy just walking down the road.

Arnold Lobel's beloved Level 2 I Can Read classic was created for kids who read on their own but still need a little help.

The classic Frog and Toad stories by Arnold Lobel have won numerous awards and honors, including a Newbery Honor, a Caldecott Honor, ALA Notable Children’s Book, Fanfare Honor List (Horn Book), School Library Journal Best Children’s Book, and Library of Congress Children’s Book.

Critic Reviews

"Grasshopper, who wants to go on a journey, sets out down the road, meeting animals who are too busy with their own activities to enjoy the sights and sounds of nature." ( Publishers Weekly)
