The Otter, The Spotted Frog, & The Great Flood Review & Giveaway
I love reading books to my kids and I especially love it when the book is full of colors and great photos. I will be sharing a little big from the book The Otter, The Spotted Frog, & The Great Flood by Gerald Hausman, Illustrated by Ramon Shiloh.
When Spotted Frog tells of a great flood that is about to destroy their homes, all of the animals ignore his warnings, except Listener the Otter. Ridiculed by the other animals, Listener heeds Spotted Frog’s predictions and begins to build a raft to try and survive the impending disaster. But will his efforts be enough?
This charming children’s book warns us to listen to the wisdom of nature and the environment. Based on a traditional story from the Creek Indians of northern Florida and Georgia, this book is retold by award-winning author and storyteller Gerald Hausman, and is brought to life by the powerful images of Ramon Shiloh. This universal tale is imbued with Native American wisdom that is even more prescient now, with the conditions of global warming that threaten our world.

I love this book and it is geared for ages 4-8 but my 10 year old liked it as well. This is a great story and it is all about the Listener and his journey to the new world and preparing for the flood.
