In this magical fantasy adventure by the award-winning author of Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher, a talking toad takes a girl on a wild ride.

Jennifer Murdley has always wanted to be pretty.

That’s why she’s so surprised to leave Mr. Elives’s magic shop with a particularly ugly toad. As her worst enemy says, “A toad for a toad. ”

But this toad can talk. And what it has to say sets Jennifer off on a journey that leads her into the company of the Immortal Vermin and straight to the Beauty Parlor of Doom … where she comes face-to-face with her deepest fears and dreams.

Jennifer Murdley would give anything to be beautiful. But sometimes anything is too high a price to pay.

“Endlessly funny … . A roller-coaster ride of a story, full of humor and even wisdom. ” —Kirkus Reviews

“Fast-moving with slapstick humor … . Recommended. ” —Horn Book
