Book 1 in The Brave Frog Renee series!

Renee the frog wonders: Is the Earth like a soft-boiled egg inside?

She decides to go on an expedition to find out! She packs a bag with the most useful things, pushes her way through the roots of an oak tree, and begins on her journey. What will she discover along the way? A scary millipede? A powerful ant queen? One thing is certain: it will be an adventure!

From the author and illustrator of No. 5 Bubblegum Street, featuring the artwork style that "share[s] the bright hand-drawn style of beloved Scarry characters" (The Times), this wacky and humorous adventure is sure to inspire deep thinking and big questions about the world around us.
