From the creators of the award-winning nonfiction picture books Moth and Fox comes a visually spectacular story of how life on Earth began.

If frogs come from eggs,
and eggs come from frogs,
where did the first frog come from?


A frog can tell the story of the universe. Because before there were frogs, before there were people and plants, and before there was the Earth itself, the universe started with a tiny speck and a bang. And from this single speck, the universe and all life came to be.

Isabel Thomas’s lyrical text and Daniel Egnéus’s breathtaking illustrations transport readers through time and space to the very moment the universe was created. A story is still being told—in every garden, every pond, and every corner of our extraordinary planet.

Frog: A Story of Life on Earth is an imaginative and educational introduction to the history of our universe, our planet, evolution, and the vast diversity of our planet.
