Where is the frog': a children's book inspired by claude monet, hardcover/geraldine elschner

Based on the beloved series of water lily paintings by Claude Monet, this childrens book draws readers into the atmosphere and colors of Monets garden at Giverny, where a lovely but vain frog tries to insert herself into the artists work.

When Antoinette, a comely young frog, learns that a famous artist is searching for beautiful flowers to paint, she is determined to get in the picture.

But once the portrait is painted, it disappears--perhaps forever.

This delightfully humorous mystery is accompanied by colorful illustrations that recall Monets paintings of the pond near his home in Giverny.

The final pages of the book feature reproductions of eight of Monets water lily paintings.

As children follow Antoinettes antics on a summer evening in France, they will become entranced by the pond, the painter, the light, and the beauty of Monets world.
