Summary

'Ouch,' said Limpy. 'Why's my back hurting?' A horrible thought hit him. Perhaps it was a fork wound. Perhaps while he was unconscious the human had tried to eat him. He looked around. 'Stack me,' said Limpy. All he could see was blue plastic.

Limpy's on a quest to find toad heaven. A place where cane toads won't be blown up with bike pumps or bashed over the head with folding chairs. Limpy's determined to find this place if it takes the rest of his life. But first he has to get out of the bucket.

The stirring saga of one cane toad's dream - and what happens when he wakes up.

Editor reviews

Life for Limpy and the rest of his family of cane toads is not particularly easy. There’s errant car tires, threatening lawn chairs, and blunt bike pumps. Fortunately, the slightly squashed but valiant toad has heard of a place safe from the danger of humans. Toad Heaven, written and performed with a perfect enthusiasm by the award-winning children’s author Morris Gleitzman, is the comical and somewhat-inspiring journey of Limpy and his friends as they navigate the wild world of human roadways and ferocious fire ants in search of a nature preserve for all of the cane toads to live in safely and happily.

Critic reviews
