Description
Are you burned-out, exhausted, and tired of hustling? Do you ever want to throw your head back and scream “But I’m just a little guy!”?
In this adorably illustrated gift book based on comedian Charlie James’s viral “Little Frog” sketches, Paul Bog is here to show you a softer, sillier, sunnier way to be.
Within these pages, Paul Bog walks you through a day in his life and shares advice on how to navigate modern existence, including:
- Avoiding Burnout: “For every hour of work I do, I spend three hours staring at a still life painting.”
- Finding a Therapist: “If you’ve already tried speaking directly into a wishing well to no avail, I suggest talking to a wise old owl or a professional therapist (interchangeable).”
- Saving Money: “I cannot save money for the future. The future is too unknowable. I can, however, toss a little coin into a nearby wishing well and hope for the best.”
- Anxiety: “My only advice for limiting anxiety is to spend fifty to ninety percent of your life supine near a large body of water.”
This hilarious and charming guide to the “little guy” lifestyle will inspire anyone who wants to slow down and muck around.

Just the right amount of adorable and cheeky, with brilliant artwork. Definitely taking a few of Paul Bog's tips on board. Just need to get my hands on some Scotch soaked linen.

I kept turning the page and being reminded of another person that needs this book! It's charming, relatable, and funny. There are at least 5 pages I want to frame and hang somewhere that I look every day.
This book is a delight and I can't wait to gift it to several people.

An absolutely charming book about how to be a little guy. I remember seeing the first Tiktok that turned into this book, and it stays true to that spirit 100%. Sometimes you are just a little guy and this book will tell you how to live with that in mind. I believe there's a little guy in all of us, you just have to find him. Probably a shiny rock will work.
