Milton RackhamMyrl Thompson (or "Grandpa Myrl") spent his boyhood summers with his German immigrant grandparents on the banks of Ryan Creek in western Michigan. As he played in those wetlands by the hour, he came to love the bullfrogs, lily pads, and even horseflis that made the creek their home. A mechanical engineer and amateur author/illustrator, Grandpa Myrl wrote "Skinny Little Frog" in 1972 to encourage his own children to eat. Now his children, fully grown, share this family treasure with you. Other books by Mr. Thompson include "Willy and Wilma Whiner", "PT Boat 81: Still on Nightmare Patrol", and "The Last 100 Years: Stories of Life on the Farm". Read More Read Less
