A Frog in the Bog

This rhythmic story counts up the bugs eaten by a small green frog - and tells how he must let them all go when an alligator tries to eat him!

There's a small, green frog on a half-sunk log in the middle of the bog.

He eats one tick, two fleas, three flies, four slugs and five snails - and he gets a lot bigger.

Then his log starts to rise, and a hungry alligator appears, ready to eat the big, fat frog.

But the frog opens his mouth very wide and out come...five snails, four slugs, three flies, two fleas and one tick.

The frog grows smaller, the alligator goes away, and the bugs and the frog learn their lesson.

The bugs in the bog keep away from the frog, and the frog NEVER sits on a half-sunk log!
