Publisher Notes
Billy's frog looks like a winner and the day of the frog jump will be perfect--if only his dad shows up. Full color.
Media Reviews
"The plot, paced more like an easy reader than a picture book, and with a large typeface and ample atmospheric paintings, make this appeal to emerging readers, especially those facing their own feelings of loss and abandonment."
Synopses
Billy is disappointed when his father doesn't show up to help him catch a frog for the frog-jumping competition at school, but the one he and his mother catch wins the championship and Billy begins to accept his father's absence.
