Toad Heaven - Toad Series #2 (Morris Gleitzman)

Toad Heaven - Toad Series #2

Morris Gleitzman

Blurb: 'Ouch,' said Limpy. 'Why's my back hurting?' A horrible thought hit him. Perhaps it was a fork wound. Perhaps while he was unconscious the human had tried to eat him. He looked around. 'Stack me,' said Limpy. All he could see was blue plastic.

Limpy's on a quest to find toad heaven. A place where cane toads won't be blown up with bike pumps or bashed over the head with folding chairs. Limpy's determined to find this place if it takes the rest of his life.

But first he has to get out of the bucket.
