Book Review: Froggy’s Worst Playdate

 

Jonathan London lives in California, and is an author many times over; this adventure of Froggy’s is neither his first nor his last. London started with three picture books in 1992 and went on very successfully from there. He draws his ideas from dreams and his own imagination—a guy after my own heart!

About Froggy’s Worst Playdate

This is another book I found at the library—unlike the last, it was a bit harder to find, but worth it once I did. Since it’s part of a series as well, I feel as though I’ve struck the jackpot again! Froggy’s adventures from a glance seem fun enough to follow for a while to come.
