Story of Frog Belly Rat Bone
By Timothy Basil Ering
A magical story with quirky, expressionistic artwork.
In a gloomy land dwells a special boy who finds a treasure. But it is one thing to find a treasure and quite another to keep it when thieves are around. To protect the loot, the boy builds a creature from wire; wet, smelly socks; and other things at hand. And so is born Frog Belly Rat Bone, and before kids can say "junkyard dog," Cementland is transformed into a garden of Eden.
- With subtle tones and bursts of glowing color, Tim Ering’s surreal artwork and hand-lettered text exude all the whimsy of an inspired imagination
- A Nick Jr. Family Magazine Best Book of the Year.
- A Sunday Times Children's Book fo the Week.
