Children's Corner: Froggy Bakes a Cake

Review: My son has a classmate/friend who is obsessed with frogs, so for her goody bag at her birthday party she gave away Froggy Bakes a Cake. This one is usually in a weekly repertoire of books that I read him. He thinks its funny because Froggy makes a mess trying to make a cake for his mom's birthday. Plus the cake has so much baking powder in it, that it ends up exploding in the oven.

It's a good one for parents because it reminds us that we need to let kids try things on their own and fail so that they can learn that it's ok. Froggy's dad helps him but lets him make a mess.

The illustrations are colorful and bright. Froggy and his parents are delightful characters. I'm sure at some point we will be checking out more from the library.
