Niki Daly.
A young toad named Tad embarks on a quest to find a princess whose kiss will save his Toadville-by-Tumbletown home. Meanwhile, a girl named Taylor is bummed that wicked developers are planning to tear up the land abutting her grandmother's property. There's some seriousness along the way, but the story's good-time rock-and-roll vibe lightens things up.
