A magical STEM story that sees frog spawn transform into frogs as Millie’s own special friendship grows.

Millie has started at a new school and making friends hasn’t been easy. On a morning stroll through the park before school, Millie’s dad points out a pond filled with frog spawn and explains that soon they will go through BIG changes. Just as the frog spawn will grow and transform, can Millie embrace the changes in her life?

Made in collaboration with Woke Babies, this book offers a gentle introduction to the incredible life cycle of a frog, while helping children overcome their own worries about change and new beginnings. This is a wonderful reminder that sometimes friendships take time to blossom, but it encourages children to take a chance anyway.

With vivid illustrations accompanying the exciting STEM story, The Pond in the Park is the perfect gift for a little one, or for anyone looking for a heart-warming story with inspiring characters.
