I have a question from a writer that I cannot answer. It concerns Passover songs/stories for children featuring a mischievous frog character. When did the frog emerge as a popular character in children's Passover stories. The Frog Song (Frogs here, frogs there, frogs were jumping everywhere) may have been the impetus for stories featuring frogs, such as Pharaoh and the Fabulous Frog Invasion, by Osher Werner (2007). Were there earlier such stories? How far back were the first Passover children's books to use a funny frog or frogs as characters?Any thoughts? Andrea Rapp, Wise Temple Cincinnati
