The American Toad! It gets no love! It's short, stumpy, and ugly, and is always depicted as such a toad in children's books. But for some reason, kids are fascinated with them. Seeing these toads find their way onto your porch on a summer night after a heavy rainfall is a spectacle for children! Plus, toads aren't all bad. They eat a lot of the pesky insects that we don't want to deal with in the muggy summer months.
