Fickleton Farm is peaceful and calm until the arrival of a warty
visitor. With con dence high, he announces to the animals, "I'm Stud.
I'm the best!" But what can a toad bring to a farm? Stud is a born
entertainer who is not afraid to fail. He eventually earns his spot on
the farm and is embraced by the menagerie. Readers will jump for joy at
Stud's stage failures and may stifle a croak at the surprise ending.
