K-Gr 3-"Toadally cool." That's how beginning readers will describe this collection of puns, riddles, and jokes related to frogs and toads. Among the punniest are: "What do you call froggy sandals? Open-toad shoes," and "Which froggy was a Viking? Leap Eriksson." Bender's paintings perfectly complement the humor and provide some visual clues for new readers.-Maura Bresnahan, Shawsheen School, Andover, MA Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.
