Limpy the Toad has a vision. A world where cane toads and humans play mudslides together. And help each other with the shopping. And share their slug sauce and maggot moisturizer. But how does a young cane toad discover the ancient secret of living in peace with humans? In his third adventure, Limpy will travel all the way to South America's Amazon rain forest to find out.
