Summary |
"Bully Bull Frog and His Home in Rainbow Valley" by Elizabeth Stafford Fry is a children's fiction book written in the early 20th century. The story introduces readers to Bully, a young frog living in a picturesque pond in Rainbow Valley, as he navigates the challenges of growing up and the dangers posed by both other creatures and changing environments. Through Bully's adventures, the book highlights themes of friendship, bravery, and the importance of community. The opening of the book paints a vivid picture of Bully's serene home and begins with the gentle recounting of his early life stages, from tadpole to young frog. As Bully enjoys the beauty of nature and the company of fellow pond inhabitants, he learns about the dangers that threaten his kind, particularly the presence of cruel boys and, later, dangerous ducks. As Bully wrestles with feelings of helplessness and concern for his fellow frogs, he dreams of a way to invite more frogs to the safety of Rainbow Valley—a central dilemma that sets the stage for his adventures and the friendships he will forge along the way.
