Look Before You Leap!

by Sheila Sweeny Higginson

When a wayward frog jumps into Pluto's water bowl, the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse "sensational six" decide to offer some guidance to the young amphibian. Looking at the world surrounding the Clubhouse from the frog's point of view, children learn important lessons about planning, patience and persistence! These life-skill lessons are carefully intertwined with early-math learning, including counting to 10, finding likenesses and differences, and categorizing. Readers will have lots of fun helping the gang's amphibian friend find his way.

Mickey Mouse and his Clubhouse crew met a frog. This frog was extremely jumpy. However, every time the frog leaped, he made a big mess. They eventually found a new safe home for this frog. It was a fun read!
