"The action appropriately snowballs in this uproariously funny seasonal romp."
                                     - Kirkus Reviews
"...a wonderful, heartwarming book which brings back a little of the magic that is Christmas."
                  - Hanlie Robbertse, Reedsy Discovery.
"Michaela Brannon makes the story enchanting with her wonderful illustrations."
           - Mamta Madhavan, Reader's Favorite.

"While Katy and her family spend a snowy Christmas away at Grandma's house, a cold and clever little frog jumps at the chance to move into their warm, empty home.

 

Unfortunately...so does every other four-legged forest dweller in the area! 

 

With the perfect holiday vacation house overrun with guests, chaos quickly erupts until the group finds a peaceful solution in this wildly enjoyable holiday tale of tails. What begins as a break from the wintery woollyland transforms into an annual holiday tradition of kindness and generosity.

 

The Frog at the Window is a Christmas tale with a message for every season!

NEW! 10th Anniversary Edition.

Updated artwork for a more media-centric modern world and yes - you guessed it... even more creeping vines!!

(NOW AVAILABLE!)  A young boy discovers that lounging on his favorite sofa playing videogames around the clock is not all it's cracked up to be. His lack of attention to life's basics such as bathing, good food, fresh air, sunlight, and old fashioned exercise wreaks havoc on his young body, and before long our little lad finds himself a prisoner of his own designing, as well as the fascination of many an onlooker as he becomes literally joined at the hip with his increasingly disgusting environment.

 

After watching the snowstorm of the season blow into his neighborhood, a young boy wakes to find his town literally buried beneath a mountain of snow. Possibly stuck inside his house for the rest of the winter, survival questions of every shape and size race through his mind- including one that tugs at his thoughts to the very end of his adventure. The Question is a wild journey through the mind of a child, with an ending so honestly relatable, you can't help but smile.
