From the Okefenokee Swamp comes a frog with a wide mouth that he just loves to use.

The Wide Mouth Frog by Keith Faulkner

This beautifully illustrated and well written book has brought new and colorful language to special children with little to no language. They asked me for "The Wide Mouth Frog". Thanks for your prompt attention.

The Twins' Favorite Book

Absolutely loved, loved, loved this book - my husband brought it home after a business trip when our boy/girl twins were just six weeks old, and by the time they were a year old, it was one of their most favorite books...and remained so, for several years. The illustrations really come to life with these amazing pop-ups, and the huge "Splash!" at the end always sent the kids into giggles. Eight years later, I purchased another copy of the book to send to my brother's baby boy - and he loves it just as much as his cousins always did. I highly recommend this book for anyone with children aged anywhere around 10 months - 4 years, and even older!

Fabulous

This is the book that helped my five-month old become an avid book lover. She is now seven months and she taps on the cover of the book whenever she wants me to read it with her (which happens about 30 times a day). The text is wonderful for mimicking the different animals and the book allows creativity during the reading process using the pop ups. When my baby cries, I usually pick up the book and she starts smiling instantly, excited about the prospect of reading it again. Now she shows an incredible interest in books of all kinds, curious about what treasures they hide.
