The story of the Mysterious Tadpole begins when Louis’s uncle McAllister brings a tadpole for his birthday present. Louis feeds is tadpole, Alphonse, nothing but cheeseburgers and is amazed at how quickly he grows. Although everyone is expecting Alphonse to turn into a normal frog just like other normal tadpoles, he quickly shows everyone that he is nothing but normal. Alphonse grows too big for a jar, the sink, the bath tub, and even a swimming pool. Louis’ parents became frustrated at how much room Alphonse is taking up, and suggest that he be taken to the zoo. Louis is determined to keep Alphonse no matter what, even if it means taking him to obedience school or smuggling him into the schools pond. This is another amazing book by Steven Kellogg. The illustrations and story line are amazing and so imaginative.
