The Big Wide-Mouthed Frog
Ana Martin Larranaga
Paperback
(Gardners Books, Feb. 28, 2003)
"I'm a big wide-mouthed frog and I eat flies," says the chirpy big wide-mouthed frog to the kangaroo, the koala, the possum and the emu. "Who are you, and what do you eat?" Then the big wide-mouthed frog meets a crocodile - and finds out that sometimes it's better to keep your big wide mouth shut! Larranaga's illustrations use bold blocks of color and work strikingly well. Small children will enjoy joining in the frog's refrain, while beginner readers will find the repetition helpful. - The Daily Telegraph ...a delightfully illustrated story...has all the hallmarks of success. - Yorkshire Post
