this is so cute! my granddaughter, who is 7--and very animal-centric--was in church with her folks 2 weeks ago. apparently there was a massive hatch of toads somewhere in the church, because the sanctuary was loaded with hundreds of them. little granddaughter proclaimed that she had to do a rescue, and the pastor agreed with her--she spent the entire service collecting the babies in a big cup from the snack station, and taking them outside to release. by the time the service was over, she'd taken a couple of hundred of them out to the long grass out back. the next week, she gathered another hundred, and this sunday was an "animal blessing" service--and sure enough, she found one more toad in the hall. it was blessed, along with pets and some small farm animals, and this blessed toad was sent out in the grass, too. i love toads. even more, i love this child's advocate heart.
