The Ugly Weed Patch Paul A. Mitchell

This story is about the critters that make a snarly weed patch home. Their neighbour Mr. Whitten has long considered clearing the weed patch to create a vegetable garden. For best "froggie" friends Lester and Leo and the rest of the weed patch residents, this would be disastrous. It's a hot summer and the nearby pond used by the frogs in the weed patch has turned to dust. To keep cool a dripping water tap at the back of Mr. Whitten's house is a tempting choice. Getting to it, however, could cost Lester his life. Read the story to discover what happens to Lester, Leo and all the others living in the weed patch.
