Introducing Bait, the little toad with a big personality. 

Bait the toad loves the camera, and the camera certainly loves him! From his river-bed roots to TikTok stardom, Bait has never found a pose he couldn’t slay, or a hat he couldn’t style.  

In this side-splitting photo book, Bait is ready to prove that there’s more to amphibians than meets the eye. Whether it’s striking confident poses in the garden, sporting sassy homemade hats, or hanging out with his furry friends, this tiny toad has a lot to teach us all about being comfortable in our own skin.

Brighten up your day or make a loved one laugh with Bait and his pals, the perfect gift for any age.

“Vivid and adorable photos of Bait fill the tiny pages of this book… Very cute!” — Youth Services Book Review, 4.5 out of 5 stars

“This is a gift for that person who has everything. [...] If I'm having a grumpy day, paging through this little book of portraits of Bait lifts my spirits immediately. A little bit of laughter and joy for someone in your life.” —Andie Miller, on the The Good Book Appreciation Society

"[A] sweet little book that was put together by a fourteen year-old Colorado girl who loves her toad named Bait. Filled with pictures of Bait hamming it up for the camera, it's a perfect little book for the amphibian lover in your life." — Skylark Books, Columbia, MO
