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
