Praise for A Frog in the Bog…
"The tautly told tale, dramatic surprise, and appropriate comeuppance for the protagonist will delight young listeners."
-- Horn Book Guide
"Wilson's bouncy, humorous verses mesh well with Rankin's cartoonlike, watercolor illustrations, which fairly teem with visual asides."
-- Booklist
"This imaginative counting book will keep children laughing...."
-- School Library Journal
"Wilson's blend of early learning concepts, humor, and wordplay make for a jaunty read-aloud."
-- Publishers Weekly, starred review
