Summary/Back cover:
Down by the pool in the cool of the day, Frog cried, “Wheeeee! Can you dance like me?”
Join sprightly Frog and his energetic farmyard friends frolicking down by the cool of the pool – flipping and flopping, splishing and splashing stomping and stamping in their watery wonderland. Where will the fun end?
Review:
This book is created by the illustrator of Giraffes Can’t Dance and the author of the Amazing Machines series. If you and your children are fans of The Lion Who Wanted to Love, Commotion in the Ocean and/or Farmyard Hullabaloo (all published by Orchard Books) you will definitely enjoy this book. It’s a lot of fun to read, with great rhythm and rhyme and lots of onomatopoeia. The illustrations are bright and lively.
My rating: 4.5 out of 5
