With a zip, zoop, zup, and a zut, zut, zut, our beloved Froggy friend is back. In this book Froggy and his father visit a bike shop to purchase a new bicycle for Froggy. Froggy is so excited that he even dreams about his new bicycle. Froggy's friends gather around to watch as Froggy rides his new bike for the first time. Everyone who has ever learned to ride a bike will agree that it takes practice. Naturally, Froggy experiences a few bumps and thumps along the way. With his persistence, though, and the support of his friends and family, Froggy eventually learns to ride his bike and he rides it again, and again, and again. Renowned children's author Jonathan London has teamed once more with illustrator Frank Remkiewicz to create what is sure to be another "Froggy" classic. 2006, Viking/Penguin Young Readers Group, Ages 2 to 6.
