Youngsters of all ages will be amused, entertained, and delighted by Sir Leaps-A-Lot Saves The Day! Sir Leaps-A-Lot is a young toad in Goose Pimple Junction. He wants to be an opera singer like all the other young toads who study under the tutelage of the choir professor. The professor praises the youth who sit still to echo back the proper chords. Unfortunately, he has no patience for squirmy students. That is a problem for Sir Leaps-A-Lot...he can't sit still! Music enchants the little frog so much that instead of singing, he hops and twirls. The professor frowns, classmates laugh, and poor Sir Leaps-A-Lot feels like a failure; a 'Big Flop' who doesn't fit the toad role.

Fortunately, Sir Leaps-A-Lot's wise grandmother encourages him to believe that God does not make mistakes. His grandmother's encouragement and his talks with God help him to feel good about who God created him to be: a fun loving, happy, twirling, dancer. When a crisis befalls the professor and his classmates, it is Sir Leaps-A-Lot who comes to the rescue. His ability to hop and twirl becomes the key to saving the day, proving that being different can be a tremendous strength.

Through this heartwarming journey, Sir Leaps-A-Lot discovers that true fulfillment comes through trusting God and embracing one's authentic self. Being 'who he is', made him a hero.

Raisin lived in upper east Tennessee close to Goose Pimple Junction. Her house, high on a hill, strangely resembles the Rocky Top Cafe. She was married to Tom, her knight in shining armor and was blessed with three grown children who live nearby. Mindy, Brady and Kendall are the other loves of her life. She just had a granddaughter...with surely more to come. Raisin had a cream doodle, Whimsy, who guards her house and a standard poodle, Noodle who loved to tag along on trail rides with Raisin and Harley, her sweet, yet occasionally grumpy Freisian horse. They used to bound through the Hob Knob Forest on a quest to find Goose Pimple toads. Raisin lived in upper east Tennessee close to Goose Pimple Junction.

Reviews for Sir Leaps-A-Lot Saves The Day

"""An orchestration of imagination, describes the world that Raisin Carter creates in her paintings. Critters of all sizes and shapes only exists in the world that she creates from the tip of her paintbrush. If only I could get inside her head and see what she sees, for just a little while."" - Earnestine Blanton, Middle school art teacher"
