What happens when a jealous frog tries to outgrow an Elephant? Based on a traditional Ethiopian teret (a wise rhyming saying that adults begin and children finish), this teaching tale about the potential consequences of ambition and the importance of self-acceptance is illustrated by talented student artists. Side by side text in indigenous Ethiopian languages like Afaan Oromo, Amharic and Tigrinya and English support bilingual readers as they develop vocabulary and fluency.
Ethiopia is home to many endangered animal species, including frog species that don’t live anywhere else on Earth. One of them has the interesting name of the Ethiopian snout-burrower, which spends most of its time underground. Another species, the burrowing tree frog, has part of its habitat protected by the Bale Mountains National Park.
