My 4 Year Old LOVES It!

My four-year-old daughter loves this story, both in counting the frogs on the pages and repeating the frog "songs" as the story goes along. She has suddenly noticed and gets excited about the frogs singing in our own backyard. Wonderful story, great illustrations. Your child will love it.
