Stead 與繪者 Matthew Cordell 再度合作，描寫一位古怪又充滿熱情的Aunt Josephine，向姪女講述她追尋巨蛙的奇幻經歷。故事從秘魯叢林展開，穿越海洋與城市，節奏明快又荒誕可愛。Cordell 以流暢筆觸與水彩展現誇張場景，畫面充滿細節與幽默；Stead 則讓敘事在喧鬧與沉靜之間往返，展現講故事的樂趣與親情的溫度。這是一則關於想像、冒險與傾聽的繪本，適合親子共讀，也讓人重新體會「講故事」這件事的魔力。When a curiously croaking stranger comes knocking at the door, Aunt Josephine launches into a rambling tale about her lifelong pursuit of a rare giant frog.

When the admiral's son was suddenly swallowed by a giant frog, Aunt Josephine gave chase in a journey which took her around the world. In the tradition of Philip Stead and Caldecott Medalist Matthew Cordell's previous collaborations Special Delivery and The Only Fish in the Sea, this is a story full of rambunctious fun and sensationally appealing artwork.
