Six slurpy stories, two comical combatants, and one laugh-out-loud picture book Frog and Fly are constant companions. There is only one problem . . . Frog thinks Fly is delicious! This leads to a never-ending battle of wits with laugh-out- loud consequences. Told in six short comic stripstyle chapters, Frog and Fly will delight kids and leave them begging for yet another slurpy story.

"Adults might want to get more than one copy of this, as it's sure to fly right off the shelves."-"BCCB" "Suitable for beginning readers, the humorous antics of Frog and Fly will be enjoyed by preschoolers as well. Bright, cartoonlike illustrations fill the pages, some of which have two panels clearly delineated by white frames, adding to the cartoon feel. This would be a fun reader's theater for storytime or classroom use."--"School Library Journal" "Young readers will enjoy watching the jokes play out in Mack's crisp comic-book panels, which are peppered with clearly lettered dialogue and thought bubbles. This expressive and personable duo provides a spot-on brand of joke-book style humor that children will find plenty entertaining."--"Publishers Weekly" Capitol Choices' "Noteworthy Titles for Children and Teens" list! Selected for the Pennsylvania Book Award--The Baker's Dozen "One of the very best picture books of 2012"
