Frog and Toad is a series of easy-reader children's books, written and illustrated by American author Arnold Lobel.

Each book contains five simple, often humorous, sometimes poignant, short stories chronicling the exploits of an anthropomorphic frog and toad.

[1] Some of their adventures include attempting to fly a kite, cleaning Toad's dirty house, and finding out different reasons for isolation.

[3] In 2008, three of Arnold Lobel's uncolored, unpublished Frog and Toad books were discovered in an estate sale.

[16] Both films were directed by John Clark Matthews, credited also as theme music composer and one principal animator.

Prior to this, the books had inspired a non-musical play, "Frog and Toad (Forever)" written by Y York, and performed at Seattle Children's Theatre in 1998 and First Stage Milwaukee in 1999.

It also features Ron Funches, Fortune Feimster, Yvette Nicole Brown, Margaret Cho, Cole Escola, Tom Kenny and Aparna Nancherla.
