这本儿童读物以克劳德•莫奈****的睡莲系列为基础，将读者带入了位于吉维尼的莫奈花园的氛围和色彩中，花园里有一只可爱但徒劳的青蛙试图将自己融入这位画家的作品中。 当漂亮的小青蛙安托瓦内特（Antoinette）得知一位**画家正在寻找美丽的花朵来作画时，她决心要进入画中。但是一旦画像被图上颜色，它就会消失-也许永远消失。这个令人愉悦的幽默之谜配有色彩丰富的插图，让人回想起莫奈为吉维尼他家附近的池塘创作的画。本书的最后几页重现了莫奈的八幅睡莲画作。孩子们将被莫奈世界的池塘，画家，灯光和美所吸引。

Based on the beloved series of water lily paintings by Claude Monet, this children's book draws readers into the atmosphere and colors of Monet's garden at Giverny, where a lovely but vain frog tries to insert herself into the artist's work. When Antoinette, a comely young frog, learns that a famous artist is searching for beautiful flowers to paint, she is determined to get in the picture. But once the portrait is painted, it disappears--perhaps forever. This delightfully humorous mystery is accompanied by colorful illustrations that recall Monet's paintings of the pond near his home in Giverny. The final pages of the book feature reproductions of eight of Monet's water lily paintings. As children follow Antoinette's antics on a summer evening in France, they will become entranced by the pond, the painter, the light, and the beauty of Monet's world.
