Review title: Dreadful - a review of Edith Tarcov's Frog Prince
Product review: I was looking for the classic tale of Frog meets Princess and mistakenly picked up this book. Dreadful.First, although we have liked James Marshall's artwork elsewhere, there's nothing special here. The drawings are simple and generally uninspired.Second. Who thought a rewrite with the princess slamming the frog against the wall was a good idea?!? Not us. In fact, my husband nixed the idea of reading this to our small children after he gave it a preliminary perusal.From the book:That made the princess veryangry.She picked up the frog, andshe threw him against the wall!But when he fell to thefloor; the frog was no longera frog.Note that there is no explanation of why this outburst led to the witches spell being broken. [Perhaps we should slam each other around to see if there's a prince or princess hiding within--lol]Two Stars. So-so art. Not true to the original tale.
