jennifer murdley's toad

I REALLY ENJOYED THIS BOOK. MY FAVORITE PART IS WHEN SHE DISCOVERED THE TOAD COULD TALK. ONE OF MY OTHER FAVORITE BOOKS IF JEREMY THATHER DRAGON HATCHER. I RECOMMEND BOTH THESE BOOKS. BRITTANY,

The Best Book I Read This Year!

The book Jennifer Murdley's Toad was a hilarious ride in reading. I thought that this book was very funny. It was a combination of comedy and a little bit of mystery. The author paints a very clear picture of Bufo (the toad)and the situation at hand.I would recommend this book to someone who has a good sense of humor, and someone who can understand lame jokes.

This is a good book for girls of all ages to read.

This book is definitely a great one to read. It connects to real life girls who hate their looks, and makes you remember that there are other things more important than being pretty and popular. It also made me want to cry at times and then in the next paragragh or so it would make me laugh. It was very enjoyable to read.

I liked Jennifer Murdley's Toad a lot.

I liked the book because I liked the talking toad named Bufo. I liked Jennifer because she was like a geode. I really liked all of the characters, like Mr. Elives, Bufo, Esmerelda, Jennifer, Sharra, Ellen, Jerome, and Roxanne. It was a good story.

this book was great!

"My favorite character is Bufo, because he is funny, and does great imitations. You can even feel yourself being pulled into the story! In Jennifer Murdley's toad, feel the suspense, the humor, and the magic. I loved this book,and I think you will too."
