The Prince of the Pond: Otherwise Known as De Fawg Pin

SarahKate's Notes:

We laughed out loud throughout this book, it was so much fun to read. It was fascinating to hear about life from a frog's perspective and the girls were so very eager to hear more chapters from this book. It is the first in a series.
Note of caution: The fact that frogs mate is brought up, though saying that males have suckers on their 'hands' so that they can hold on is as far as they go to describe the process.
