A Hippy-Hoppy Toad

A Hippy-Hoppy Toad

<b>From the illustrator of the award-winning <i>Sophie's Squash </i>comes a rollicking read-aloud featuring a very tiny toad who gets displaced as animals--and humans--brush past him on the road.</b><br><br><i>In the middle of a puddle</i><br><i>in the middle of a road</i><br><i>on a teeter-totter twig</i><br><i>sat a teeny-tiny toad. </i><br><i>Snap! went the twig! </i><br><i>Up went the toad! </i><br><i>And he landed on a tree </i><br><i>by the side of the road.</i><br><i></i><br>It's hard to be a tiny toad minding your own business on a twig. First a bird pecks at him. . . . Then a bee buzzes. . . . Then a dog barks . . . and so on. And each time the toad is surprised by a buzz or a woof (or the toe of a sneaker!), he hops to a new location farther down the road. With fun sounds, clever rhymes, and an irresistible rhythm, this is the perfect story for sharing one-on-one or in a group.<i></i>
