Toads are frogs. Calling the characters “Frog” and “Toad” implies that Toad is less of a frog than Frog is. Is this because he is brown? The book should be called “Two Frogs of Diverse Background Are Friends,” and the frogs should have names that reflect their complete essence, not just their species.
Beg your pardon..

This is obviously a troll, but for anyone who doesn’t understand, the OP is referring to a kids series of books called Frog and Toad.

The deep wisdom and incredible life lessons in Arnold Lobel’s fantastic Frog and Toad books should be studies, reviewed, and internalised , as I have been doing for years. Such lessons such as “how to be alone together”, how to say “blah” properly, how to find the buttons you have lost, and how to avoid the Old Dark Frog are indispensable. Their existential wisdom surpasses any literary Gadlus outside Torah (including but not limited to such eternal gems as “Ulysses”, Alcoholic Anonymous, Wuthering Heights, and Hamlet).
To denigrate Frog and Toad demonstrates that you are a foolish boor, your meaningless critiques vanish in the motioning sun, as the dew of night.For Shame!
Why doesn’t anyone realize that the OP is humorously poking fun at the absurdity of progressive dogma?
Methinks that perhaps you, TD, should realize that I did realize, and tired of the subject, attempted to change the discussion to world literature .
Excuse me, but this thread is missing a crucial point from a Torah perspective. A toad is a Sheretz and is Tamei, while a frog is neither. They should not be hanging out with each other, as the gemara says at the end of perek “אלו טריפות’, that לא לחינם הלך זרזיר אצל עורב.
