Good storytime book about sharing and being open to new experiences. ( )

Story follows froggie and rabbit as rabbit tells stories and froggie comes to listen. All is well until froggie starts overstepping and going beyond what a house guest does. This all culminates with froggie bringing his entire family to listen and rabbit does not have the patience anymore. The frogs leave and rabbit starts to read alone. Finally! but something was missing. This story is great for students who take advantage of things giving and need a reality check. ( )

In my opinion this book was okay, not my favorite. First off, I thought the illustrations were repetitive. For example, the pages where rabbit read had all the same pictures. With the repeated illustration readers may become less engaged and unfocused. Second, I thought the language could have been more descriptive. The author had frog come in and each tons of snacks, but did not describe them only simply said, "fixed a snack. Or three." I think if the author had used more descriptive language readers would be more engaged and looking forward to what happens next. Although there were some things I did not like about the book, I did like the overall theme the author was conveying. The frog kept coming back uninvited, which irritated the rabbit. However, in the end the rabbit ended up missing the frog. I think the author was trying to teach students that friends are important and even if they bug you sometime you will still need and miss them. ( )

I collect frog books, and this is a wonderful edition to my collection.

My nephews love to look for frog books for me. ( )

Summary: This book is about a rabbit that tries to read himself a book before he sleeps but can't because Frog always comes over. Frog comes over and makes himself comfortable before Rabbit can say no. Frog eventually tells his family about all the stories he has heard and brings them over to Rabbits house but Rabbit tells Frog that he was never OK with it. Rabbit then realized that he enjoyed Frogs company and wants his whole family to join while Rabbit tells them a story.

Personal: "Too Many Frogs!" is a very adorable book. My roommates and I enjoyed reading it alot!!

Classroom: This book is good to teach students about sharing and always remembering to ask permission to do or have something. It is also good to teach students about making friends. Frog never really asked Rabbit if he could stay and listen and make himself comfortable. He did at the end of the book and Rabbit enjoyed it.
