About This Book
"Oh, no, Limpy," said Mum in exasperation. "You haven't brought home another dead relative?"
Limpy's family reckons humans don't hate cane toads, but Limpy knows otherwise. He's spotted the signs. The cross looks. The unkind comments. The way they squash cane toads with their cars.
Limpy is desperate to save his family from ending up as place mats. Somehow he must make humans see how nice cane toads really are.
This is the epic story of a slightly squashed young cane toad's quest for the truth.
