Oi Frog! (Oi Frog and Friends)

Product Information

All Frog wants to do to is find somewhere more comfortable to sit rather than a log, only to be told by a Cat that even though it might not be comfortable - it's the right thing to do. Kes Grayn ja Jim Fieldin "Oi, Frog" (Hodder Children Books, 2015) ei nimestään huolimatta kerro epäonnisesta ranskalaisesta, joka tulee törmänneeksi laumaan brittiläisiä jalkapallohuligaaneja, vaan sammakosta, joka saa kuulla että tukki on - kivuliaisuudestaan huolimatta - ainoa hänelle sovelias istumapaikka.

I think we've found a new family favourite, this picture book is hugely hilarious with plenty of fun rhymes and colourfully striking illustrations. The frog does not want to sit on a log. Doing his best to find an alternative place to sit, the frog asks the cat a litany of questions. For every answer the cat has, the frog has another question--until the frog finds out what dogs sit on! This is a book that's been made to be read out loud....Taking the cat sat on a mat as a starting point, we find out what different animals sit on. But what does frog sit on? It's simply brilliant." — The Independent I must say that I yelped when the cat said, "It's not about being comfortable ... It's about doing the right thing." Overall, it's a funny story and the ending is silly, but somewhat expected. I think this book would make a fun read-aloud with a group, although some of the rhymes are a bit awkward.You'd be hard pressed to find a more entertaining book than this stunningly illustrated story... Field's illustrations are bursting with energy and silliness... an absolute treat." — Irish Daily Mail In this video I'll show you how to draw the grumpy CAT from the 'Oi!' series written by Kes Gray and illustrated by me. A] hugely enjoyable piece of rhyming fun...This is simply an absolute delight to read aloud with your child and became a firm bedtime favourite with my 6 year old daughter Coco" commented radio 2's Jo Whiley — Teach Primary

Cats sit on mats, hares sit on chairs, mules sit on stools and gofers sit on sofas, but Frog does not want to sit on a log!

Home > It's very simple, really. Cats sit on mats, hares sit on chairs, mules sit on stools, gophers sit on sofas, and frogs sit on logs." This genuinely hilarious book is brilliantly simple, based on the idea that the author-illustrator can only draw very childlike worms. Highly recommended. Ai miksikö? Koska "Dogs sit on logs", opastaa kissa. Eläimet voivat istua vain niillä asioilla, jotka rimmaavat niiden oman nimen kanssa, ja aluksi homma vaikuttaakin ihan fiksulta. Lopulta touhu alkaa kuitenkin mennä niin omitukseksi, että sammakko-polo kyseenalaistaa koko kuvion. Ei kyseessä ole järjestä, vaan siitä että asiat tehdään oikein, kertoo kissa. "Do the right thing!"

Brilliant illustrations with hilarious story outcome... perfect author/illustrator pairing. A real winner."— Peters eGazette A very funny book with a lovely twist to the tale. Really entertaining... perfect for bedtime." — Books for Keeps

A brilliant, brightly coloured gift that is guaranteed to have you in stitches."— MumsnetCats sit on mats, hares sit on chairs, mules sit on stools and gophers sit on sofas. But Frog does not want to sit on a log.” Frog doesn't want to sit on a log - logs are knobbly and uncomfortable and can give you splinters in your bottom. But Cat is insistent. Every animal has a right and proper place to sit. Frogs sit on logs, cats sit on mats and hares sit on chairs. Rather less comfortably, lions sit on irons and storks sit on forks.
