The BEST intergalactic toad book I have ever read., April 2 1997
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Commander Toad and the Big Black Hole (Paperback)
This book really fills a big black hole in modern literature. The subject of toads in space has been constantly avoided, mishandled, and disregarded since the publication of Ivan Rabinavski's "Why Toads could never make it on the moon." Jane Yolen places the space-toad in its proper perspective in a beautiful and meaningful manner, pulling no punches and using no foul language. I loved it

Brave and bright, bright and brave, Commander Toad, Nov 1 2004
By Okirun - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Commander Toad and the Big Black Hole (Paperback)
I totally loved these books when I was a kid! I really wish I still had this one. :D It has that eerie quality that most kids just love.. not scary at all, just strange, it will stick with a kid. It's that indefinable magic that shows up so much stronger when you're young, and maybe reading books like this will keep it alive later on. :D The characters are great too, this is how all kid's books should be!

A huge disappointment, Aug 15 2007
By Abby M. Gross "Abby" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Commander Toad and the Big Black Hole (Paperback)
I bought this book for my science-oriented 4yr old grandson who is fascinated by "black holes" in space. This book is a huge disappointment as the illustrations are unattrative, the story is silly and it teaches nothing. The back cover states it is a "space spoof." I wish I had known that before I bought it. Nowhere in any reviews was that made clear. Additionally, my copy had 8 pages missing text. It certainly is not for a 4 year old, nor was there anything in it for his grandmother.
