Back Cover: Frog is missing and the boy doesn’t see him anywhere. Can the boy and his dog find their new friend?

Mine: This is a great new series (to me) and of course it has frogs in it, so how can I not read it?

Once again the illustrations can’t help but tell the wonderful story of how frog disappears and boy and dog are frantically looking for him. They search everywhere – they run into trouble all along the way also. The gopher bites boys nose, the dog gets chased by the hornets from the next he knocks down. The owl in the tree scares boy and the buck with big antlers throws boy and dog over the ledge. This is where they discover frog and his family.

A sweet wordless book to read aloud with your child. Your child will be able to share and tell the story by using the pictures which are arranged in sequence. The black and white illustrations are delightful, especially the facial expressions of both the boy and his dog and the boy's oversized boots. ( )
