Endorsements
“Albert: A Frog and His Dream is one of those rare books that is both an enjoyable read and carries a valuable lesson in life. Until Albert proved differently, no frog could fly. He had a dream and the desire and fortitude to follow it,proving that dreams can come true. It’s a book that will be read many times over.”
—Paul Sinor, author and screenwriter
“What a wonderful story. A real ‘page turner,’ as they say. I liked Albert’s perseverance despite the ridicule, and the story had me guessing whether he would end up failing but learning from that experience or actually succeeding and attaining his dream. I was happy he succeeded. I think my five-year-old grandson will enjoy this book, and his old grandpa loves its positive message. And the
illustrations! Simply beautiful. They remind me of classic children’s books from yesteryear.”
—Paul Archipley, owner/publisher, Beacon Publishing, Mukilteo, WA
“Albert: A Frog and His Dream is destined to be a classic. This is a tale that children will remember into their adult-hood and want to share it with their own children. The story is so well written that it stays with you in your heart. It is told in such a way that children of all ages—as well as adults—will understand and appreciate its message. Unlike a lot of children’s books, the author does not talk down to his audience, but rather talks to them. The illustrations are absolutely lovely and worthy of framing and displaying. I sincerely hope that there will be more adventures in Albert’s future.”
—Victoria Dadi, screenwriter
