Beside the Pond: A Big Old Garden Story is a nature-inspired children's book in the spirit of Thornton Burgess and Beatrix Potter. It is the sequel to the well-received nature-inspired children's book, A Year in the Big Old Garden. Like its predecessor, Beside the Pond introduces young readers to a cast of backyard birds and animals, and follows their adventures through the seasons. Fans of the Big Old Garden will meet new friends as well as some old ones, and experience the world through the perspective of a bullfrog who has a little problem.
Beside the Pond's thirteen chapters stand alone as individual stories, perfect for bedtime or stolen moments throughout the day. They're crafted purposely to be read aloud, for the enjoyment of parents and small children alike.Taken together, the stories tell a unified tale about the animals and birds who live around the little moon-shaped pond in the Big Old Garden, so Beside the Pond can also be enjoyed as a chapter book for readers ages 7-10.
