Froggy Eats Out

Summary

Froggy is going out to dinner with his parents for their anniversary. He’s hoping for burgers and flies, but Froggy’s mother tells him Chez Yum is a very fancy restaurant. Froggy puts on his best clothes. He even has to wash. At the restaurant, Froggy’s mother warns him to “be neat, be quiet, and don’t put your feet on the table.” It’s just too much to ask of a lively little frog. Froggy can’t help himself, he sucks on ice and sugar, he slurps spaghetti and flies, and he flops and sings. When he sees Frogilina, a cute girl frog from his school, across the room, he’s so embarrassed he crawls under the table. Then the real fun begins. Full of fun words, Froggy Eats Out brings to life the dreaded fancy dinner that all children can relate to. John McDonough’s tongue-twisting narration will have youngsters giggling along with the irrepressible Froggy.
