The New Adventures of Frannie the Frisky Frog – Volume 1: Expedition March 20 is a joyful and educational children’s book that celebrates curiosity, culture, and language. Written by Suzanne De Courville Nicol, this beautifully illustrated story takes young readers on a globe-trotting journey with Frannie, a spirited little frog who loves to explore the world.

In this first volume of a planned trilogy, Frannie begins an exciting expedition to visit five iconic towers around the world, including the Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Calgary Tower in Alberta. With her wise and loving Grandma Frog as her guide, Frannie learns not only about famous landmarks but also about the history and heritage of French-speaking communities across the globe.

What sets this book apart is its trilingual presentation—English, French, and Spanish—which encourages language learning in a fun and accessible way. Perfect for children ages 5 to 10, Expedition March 20 sparks an early interest in geography, architecture, and cultural diversity. The timing of the story aligns with International Francophonie Day, making it a meaningful read for both school and home settings.
