Book Reviews of The Icky Sticky Frog
Book Review: Two boys' review: Froggy fun at bedtime -- make it great with Zoo Lights
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book along with two "Frog Zoo Light Carabiner with Sound" (available here on Amazon) for my 5-year old and 4-year old boys.
The lights are great for bedtime reading. You pull back the frog's head and they croak and shine a light from their mouth.
The book follows a pattern where the frog sneaks up on insects around the pond and "Ssshhh" (that's when my kids have to turn off their frogs). When the frog slurps up the insect, both boys pull back their frogs head and the room fills with croaking.
I read this book about once a week and the ritual is always the same. I pull this book down from the highest shelf in their closet (any lower and they'd play with this book every day). I settle down between them and hand out the pocket frogs. Then, each boy pulls on the long, sticky frog tongue hangs from the frog's mouth on the book cover. They pull the tongue out until I say, "OK, far enough" and they let it go with a resounding snap as the paper fly shoots back onto the cover.
The book has survived nearly six months of tongue pulling, so I give it a high grade for durability. I bought the large book, although I've read there's a smaller version available. I recommend the larger book so that your children can play with the frog's tongue and they can enjoy the larger illustrations.
Summary of The Icky Sticky Frog
This clever book features a frog with silly googly eyes and a long sticky-stretchy tongue that are actually attached to the book's cover! The hilarious read-aloud story features bright, humorous illustrations - and you won't believe the surprise ending! Kids delight to The Icky Sticky Frog!Frogs & Toads Books
