In a warm, funny and beautifully illustrated story of friendship that is perfect for reading aloud, a group of frogs are living happily in a peaceful pond, until they discover a surprise visitor, a little pink pig, whose behavior causes some misunderstanding. - Random House, Inc.
A group of frogs are living happily in a peaceful pond, until they discover a surprise visitor: a little pink pig. Sitting contentedly on a rock in the middle of their pond, the pig opens his mouth and says: RIBBIT! The frogs are bewildered at first, and then a bit annoyedâ"What did that little pig just say?", "Does he think he's a frog?", "Is he making fun of us?"Â
Soon the pig draws the attention of all the nearby animals; everyone is curious to know what he wants! After much guessing (and shouting) and a visit to the wise old beetle, the animals realize that perhaps the pig was not there to mock them afterallâmaybe he just wanted to make new friends! Â But is it too late? Â This is a warm, funny, and beautifully illustrated story of friendship, with boisterous RIBBIT!s throughoutâperfect for reading aloud.
