*The Guardian*
This joyful rhyming text will have children in fits of giggles, and
adults enjoying the cleverness of the text.
*Parents in Touch*
Oi Frog! was - and still is - a genius concept. The finale will
have your little ones (and grown-up readers) giggling in delight.
Truly fabulous.
*Wales Daily Post*
It's a brilliant premise that can run and run, and with such
appealing illustrations from Jim Field and such clever rhymes from
Kes Gray, here's hoping it does... Colourful, witty and silly.
*Book Trust*
The combination of Gray's writing and Field's illustrations work
wonderfully once again, no matter what Gray fires at Field, he can
draw it. Fans of the series will love this outing as it is
essentially more of the same, but delve a little deeper and it is
playing with the lore of the world. Not many children's books
create a universe in which the characters inhabit, but Gray has
achieved it. Fans should grab this with abandon, they will
especially love the ending.
*The Book Bag*
The rhymes in this book are enormously enjoyable and will have
children giggling with delight. Another wonderful book to support
phonics, rhyme and early reading, but most of all, to hook in
young.
