Upper Dab is under attack from a mysterious invasion of toads in this hilarious middle-grade adventure from award-wining author Patrice Lawrence. After a toad lands on his head as he leaves his house one morning, Leo is determined to find out where it has come from and why. Together with his friend Rosa, he needs to come up with some answers before the angry residents of Upper Dab take matters into their own hands and the toads become toast! A brilliantly quirky comedy caper with a diverse and inclusive cast of characters. Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant or dyslexic readers aged 8+

This book was about toad's and they can fly. Is was interesting and it was good I like how they came up with the chapter title's names. I liked the bit where there was a competition and the toads ate up all the plants and vegetables. I would recommend this to someone who likes toads or nature.

I loved the book. The best part was when the toad attacked the garden that they had been working on all year.

I think this book is funny and also interesting. This book was fiction and my favourite character is Rosa because she seems quite happy about it. I would recommend this book to people who like active stories.

This story is about flying toads that are terrorizing a city by eating all the plants and scaring cats and dogs away.They have webbed flaps on their body to help them glide. This story ends by people on how they manage with flying toads and to keep their plants safe by using the idea of Leo's mum's umbrella. I would recommend this book to someone else because it is a fun and crazy.My favourite character in the book is Rosa.My favourite part of the book is when Leo's mum's umbrella came in handy.My least favourite character in the book is Mary.

I can not believe it was raining toads. Leo and Rosa are really great friends and reminds me of my friends. This is also a dyslexia book. The toads could fly!
