The Frog's Song

More about the book

The Frog's Song depicts the light-hearted journey of three adults, one seven-month-old child, two dogs, and two cats who left home and hearth to sail away to a tropical island to live off the grid. Purchasing a picturesque cottage on a secluded macadamia nut orchard, surrounded by lush foliage and fragrant flowers, with the glittering Pacific just a stone's throw away, Joyce and her intrepid family settle in to live out their dream. Hawaiian life, however, is not quite what they expected. Battling torrential downpours and frequent power outages, giant night toads and inexplicable sinkholes, as well as cane grass that grows to roof-height, the Davis family, in this entertaining family memoir, rediscover life's simple joys in togetherness on a tropical isle.
