**A triumph - Daily Mail**
**Laughter, action, colour, rhyme, silliness, chaos, a king, a feast and a fairytale setting — The Royal Leap-Frog has all these - Sunday Times**
-----------------
When a flea, a grasshopper and a frog compete to show the King who can jump the highest, it causes CHAOS in the royal dining hall. Who can jump the highest? Can the clever leap-frog use his wits to win?
And will the Emperor's dog EVER get rid of the flea?
This funny and irresistible retelling of Hans Christian Andersen's classic fable, 'The Leap Frog', will make children laugh - AND show them that brains are sometimes better than brawn. With a pitch-perfect rhyming text by bestselling Peter Bently, and gloriously detailed illustrations by award-winning Claire Powell, this is an unmissable treat for all ages!
Peter Bently is the award-winning author of many children's books, including The Great Dog Bottom Swap and Cats Ahoy! (winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize). He lives in London.
Claire Powell is the illustrator of many bestselling picture books, including Octopants and The Night Before the Night Before Christmas by Kes Grey. This is her second book with Bloomsbury, following on from The King's Birthday Suit. Claire lives in the Peak District.
