8/2/2023 - Very cute illustrations and story! Some of the touch parts just felt like the book page, but overall I enjoyed the variety of textures.

Frog explores through the jungle, looking under lily pads and leaves. There are many exotic animals like piranha, geckos, and a sloth. Frog says hello to his friends, the Monkey, Snake, and Hummingbird. The reader can look behind flaps to find new insect friends, and die-cut openings to the next page. Finally the Frog falls asleep at the end of the day, and we say hello to Moth as the night begins.

This is a cute board book! I love how the flaps create a sense of mystery and exploration as we discover new things behind each one. There are also different textures built into the design with fabrics, glitter, and some kind of shiny plastic. The art work is simple and bright, and I loved the adorable animals. It's really clever how the artwork, the fabric textures, the flaps, and die-cut openings all work together in a cute design.

Cool to see a textured book where some of the flaps themselves are textured. Something about this one had Otto cracking up when I lifted the flaps!

I like the use of holes UNDERNEATH flaps in this one. It's not big enough to share with a group, but would be fun for one-on-one reading with little ones.
