I tried to look for books for my lil one when I found this read. It's an informative read on frogs for the young selves but not exactly the right one for my 16 months young. But as the book has less texts and more pictures I went for this one as he loves things being acted out and read aloud. Good thing is he laughs out when I make the 'splash' and 'whoosh' sound :-)! And show him swimming by frogs.

For 3 years up this could be a good read.

I read it when I was 16 months young. I liked how frog does "whee" in the book.
