Released by Harcourt, it was the recipient of the Caldecott Medal for illustration in 1956.[1] It is based on the folk song "Frog Went A-Courting." In 1961, Weston Woods Studios made an iconographic version of the story produced and directed by Morton Schindel, narrated by the author with music by Arthur Kleiner, culminating in a sing-along, sung by the story's narrator.
