Frog is a picture book character created by Dutch author and illustrator Max Velthuijs. The first Frog title in English was published in 1989, enititled ''Frog In Love'', translated by Klaus Flugge for Andersen Press. In the Netherlands Frog is known as Kikker and he has become a well known and loved character. In Britain ''Frog Is A Hero'' was included in the National Curriculum. Velthuijs received the prestigious Hans Christian Andersen Medal in 2004 for the illustrations of his own Frog books. When Max Velthuijs died in January 2005, Carmen Diana Dearden said: ‘like in ''Frog and the Birdsong'', “all his life he sang beautifully for us,” and he will always sing his lovely songs through his books.’ 〔(Frog page ) at Andersen Press〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Frog (picture books)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
