A cute way to teach a frog's life cycle!

I love to use this book to teach the life cylce of a frog. The on-going line of the tadpole is easy for young children to appreciate. The illustrations are bright and colorful to match the upbeat message of the story!

Enjoyable!

We found this book first in the library. My two year old son loves fish and LOVES this book. We have read it several times in the last twenty four hours. Now I have to buy it for him.

A hit with my 4 year old daughter and 7 month old son!

I took this book out from the library originally and my daughter and son loved it. It is a must have. The little tadpole wants so badly to jump. He meets up with various animals that can. He asks them all to jump and they all Boing (jump) for him (my son's favorite part) Then the tadpole says, But I want to jump now!" (my daughters part). All the animals teach him to be patient for his time will come. The tadpole grows into a frog throughout the book. Finally when he meets up with the big bad fish who eats tadpoles he BOINGS himself back to the lily pads and is safely home with his mother. He is also now a frog.
