“After Martha had read them all she knew exactly what to do with Prince Ribbit“

This story teaches the lesson of the value of friendships over appearances which is such a good lesson especially for upper elementary students who start to become more concerned with apperances

Princess Martha becomes friends with a talking frog. He could turn into a prince with a kiss but she would rather just be friends and wants him to stay the same instead of trying to change him

Found a book character that looks like me. Change those blue eyes to green and the likeness is uncanny.

“The instant Martha kissed him, a huge puff of pink smoke appeared, and the frog turned into a handsome young prince.“

A fun story about three sisters who meet a frog named Prince Ribbit. The three sisters take care of him, but only one sister will be able to turn him back....

Prince RIbbit was written by Jonathan Emmett and illustrated by Poly Bernatene. This book is about three sisters who come across a frog who happens to be a prince. The sisters take care of him; however, one sister, Martha, was the only one who saw Prince Ribbit for who he really was. At the end of the story, Martha kisses the frog, turning him into a handsome man.

This made me laugh! Because they made me think she was the true loves kiss turned him into a real prince but the whole time she was telling us that just because it is in a book does not make it true!

I love how Martha is trying to debunk the Frog but the princesses are just believing the tale and continues to serve the regular talking frog.

This was a silly story about a folktale that was within a story and a frog tricks these two princesses into thinking he was a prince, but the other princess does not believe everything that is in books! It is a great story that is based off the princess and the frog!

“and if that‘s not the ending you were expecting, then remember just because it‘s in a book doesn‘t mean it‘s true “

i think this is a good story. When i taught 2nd grade they learned about fairy tailes and they would love this.

And, in the end, both princesses realized that this was all he‘d ever been and all he‘d ever be.

This children‘s book is a silly twist on the princess who kisses a frog. The ending ends with the fact “just because it‘s in a book doesn‘t mean it‘s true!” and ends with a different perspective to the tale.

And if that‘s not the ending you are expecting, then remember….just because it‘s in a book doesn‘t mean it‘s true.

Prince Ribbit, published in 2017 was an amazing read! The story went on to show that being different is more than okay! The story shows a silly side of the princess and the frog tale while also teaching lessons to be your self!

A very informational whimsical take on the front prince. It was very cute.

This story is a twist on the princess and the frog. Published in 2016, the digitally enhanced illustrations add the whimsical tale about a frog who desires being a prince. The youngest sister investigates the frog. And the tale is a traditional fairy tale.

In this MF by Jonathan Emmett, we explore a humorous tale about a frog trying to weasel his way into a lavish lifestyle by tricking the princesses. While nearly everyone is wrapped around his slimy finger, one princess is not. Her name is Princess Martha and she has a plan but realizes soon that she must explore different perspectives to reveal the truth. This book is great for a RT.

I really like the page with the super cool illustration of a TON of classic stories I remember from my own childhood, like: the three little pigs, little red riding hood, pinnochio, peter pan, and more.

“Just because it‘s in a book doesn‘t mean it‘s true.” this quote is funny in the story and is repeated a couple times

This is a story of quite a clever, funny frog. The frog in this story has a dream, to live luxuriously, and he comes up with a plan to accomplish this dream. It‘s like the classic story the princess and a frog—but with a twist. This frog is suspicious, and Martha can tell.

“Just because it's in a book doesn't mean it's true,“ said Martha.

I would use this book in my classroom because it's a silly story that I think children would show an interest in. I really enjoyed the illustrations and language used in this book.

Prince Ribbit written by Jonathan Emmett. This book is a “knock off“ of The Princess and the Frog. At one point in the book, there are a lot of references to other fairytales/books which was interesting. It also had a theme or message that was “just because it's in a book doesn't mean it's true“ or in other words, don't always believe what you read until you see it.

“And if that‘s not the ending you were expecting, then remember... just because it‘s in s book doesn‘t mean it‘s true!”

I loved this book! Great story and adorable illustrations. I would definitely read this book to a class or children! The ending is a so sweet and funny. Definitely a favorite

This is such a great adaptation of a classic. The colorful illustrations bring life to the story and make it so fun. I loved the ending because it‘s not typical or predictable. This will throw kids off, make them laugh and teach them that just because it‘s in a book doesn‘t make it true.

Super cute princess book! I would use it in my classroom because it‘s humorous and fun!

“The instant Martha kissed him, a huge puff of pink smoke appeared, and the frog turned into a handsome young prince.”

Prince Ribbit was published in 2016 by Jonathan Emmett. I love the illustrations in the book! Throughout the book, the princesses attempt to break an evil spell by granting the frog access to luxurious things. However, it doesn‘t work so they kiss him and the frog turns into a prince!

“Just because it‘s in a book doesn‘t mean it‘s true.”

Prince Ribbit was written by Jonathan Emmett in 2016. This book was so much fun to read. It furthered the tale of the frog prince and made it so that you did not expect it to end the way it did! It‘s a great book to read and I highly suggest it for older grade levels!

I will definitely have this in my classroom! I loved this book. I think the children will love the ending how it tries and tricks you. I was even surprised while I was reading it.

Prince Ribbit by Jonathan Emmett, 2018. When I looked at the front I thought of princess Merida from the movie “Brave.” As I read I realized it was the princess and the frog. The frog needed to be turned back into a handsome prince. Martha was not living in fantasy land she didn‘t believe the frog was special like her sisters. I liked that the book incorporated other traditional literature. I loved the ending of the book!

A fun, new princess story. Exploring princesses being more than just needing a prince and the idea that not all things are true! An empowering book I would love to have in my library

Prince Ribbit by Jonathan Emmett (traditional lit, published 2016) was a really fun version of a typical princess story! I enjoyed the plot twist at the end and how princess martha was an intelligent, questioning princess. It wasn‘t portrayed at she needed a man

I like this quote “just because it‘s in a book doesn‘t mean it‘s true” I liked this because she was saying it the whole book then at the end it finally became true

This would be good for kindergarten first or second grade. I like how it shows a different side than the normal story of princess and the frog

This is a traditional literature book. I like this twist on princess and the frog, and how it‘s a version of it.
