One summer day, while pruning some lilac bushes in the garden, Colette Omans Nicoletta was surprised to find a tree frog on her forehead. She called out to her daughters so they could come to see it. As soon as the frog jumped for cover, the two girls began playing a game where they decided which animals would end up where, on their bodies. Thus, the game created the story. "There's a Frog on my Forehead" is a combination of the alphabet, animals, and a little anatomy. The illustrations are whimsical, and will encourage children who read the book to think of animals, and places on their body, to match using the alphabet. Colette Omans Nicoletta is an elementary school art teacher who lives in Chanhassen, Minnesota with her husband, two children, and cat Matilda.
