The Wide-Mouthed Frog
(A Pop-Up Book)
Written by: Kieth Faulkner
Illustrated by: Jonathan Lambert
Age: 2-5 yrs
A curious frog goes a bit too far when asking his neighbors about their eating habits in this pop-up book. Each page features a different animal describing its meal of choice, including a blue-feathered bird (worms and slugs), a furry brown mouse (seeds and berries) and, finally, ominously, a big, green alligator. The creatures are colorful and and show off large, well-constructed pop-up beaks, whiskers and snouts. When the alligator answers that he eats ""delicious wide-mouthed frogs,"" Frog's comical response, resulting in a climactic fold-out ""Splash!"". My kids love this book. It is very well loved at my house.
