Trudi Carter’s “Can Dragons and Frogs Ever Be Friends?” Brings Whimsy and Life Lessons to Frankfurt Book Fair 2025
A playful children’s tale of unlikely friendships and quiet heroism will be exhibited at the world’s largest book and publishing fair this October.
“Can Dragons and Frogs Ever Be Friends? – Second Edition” by Trudi J. Carter will be featured at the Frankfurt Book Fair 2025, taking place 15–19 October at Messe Frankfurt. Visitors will find the book on display at Hall 5.1, Stand D86, where The Maple Staple and Inks & Bindings are co-presenting more than 150 titles by independent authors worldwide.
Set in the enchanted Great Forest, the story unfolds as two hungry dragons threaten peace and a forgotten prophecy declares that dragons and frogs can never be friends. Yet, when a dragon egg tumbles into danger, an unexpected hero emerges: Melville, a humble frog, with compassion and courage changes the course of the tale. With vivid illustrations, dynamic action, and a narrative that introduces letter writing, problem solving, and empathy, Carter’s book blends whimsy with gentle lessons that young readers can carry into their own lives.
A teacher for more than three decades, Carter brings her classroom wisdom to the page. Her stories reflect how children learn best: through imagination, play, and thoughtful challenges that build real world skills. This Second Edition expands on the original with artful illustrations and a deeper focus on themes of bullying, compassion, and the ripple effects of one’s choices.
The Maple Staple, in its second year at Frankfurt and co-exhibiting for the first time with Inks & Bindings, will spotlight Carter’s book alongside an international mix of children’s literature, memoir, poetry, and fiction. Visitors to the stand can also explore author showcases, giveaways, and a free audiobook listening corner.
“Can Dragons and Frogs Ever Be Friends? – Second Edition” will be exhibited at Hall 5.1, Stand D86 during the Frankfurt Book Fair 2025. Visitors are encouraged to discover the story in person at the stand while families and educators everywhere can find the book through Amazon and other major retailers.
