Frogkisser!

By: Garth Nix

Narrated by: Marisa Calin

Poor Princess Anya. Forced to live with her evil stepmother's new husband, her evil stepstepfather. Plagued with an unfortunate ability to break curses with a magic-assisted kiss. And forced to go on the run when her stepstepfather decides to make the kingdom entirely his own.

Aided by a loyal talking dog, a boy thief trapped in the body of a newt, and some extraordinarily mischievous wizards, Anya sets off on a Quest that, if she plays it right, will ultimately free her land-and teach her a thing or two about the use of power, the effectiveness of a well-placed pucker, and the finding of friends in places both high and low.

With Frogkisser!, acclaimed bestselling author Garth Nix has conjured a fantastical tale for all ages, full of laughs and danger, surprises and delights, and an immense population of frogs. It's 50% fairy tale, 50% fantasy, and 100% pure enjoyment from start to finish.

Nix is such a masterful storyteller!

This is the perfect fairytale for modern children -- full of humor, clever thinking and a wonderful collection of quest comrades.

excellent! Garth nix never disappoints

Marisa Calin did a great job performing this book, her voices for each character were great and at times hilarious. The story was funny and cute but also deep an engaging. Garth Nix's books always have these fantastic worlds and magic back stories that leave me wanting more.

Moral lessons

I enjoyed the fantasy and the adventures of the Frog-kisser. Garth Nix is a good story writer.

Very Amusing

Garth Nix lived up to reputation! This is an about 2 princesses who have a stepmother who remarried, which makes their father actually a step-stepfather. Of course he is an evil wizard who wants the throne. The ensuing struggle is a very humorous story,

Lovely fairytale

A reluctant princess goes on a quest to stop an evil sorcerer. I really like Garth Nix writing style and the narrator did an excellent job.
