What can you do with two blobs of clay? Create something amazing!
But don't leave them alone for too long. Things might get a little
crazy. Watch the claymates squish, smash, and sculpt themselves
into the funniest shapes they can think of--from a peanut to an
elephant to a blowfish and more--in a crazy competition that will
keep young readers giggling. But when the claymates mess themselves
up beyond repair, they'll have to work together to fix each other
before they're caught in the act! Kids will laugh themselves silly
at the antics of these very creative blobs of clay--and they'll
never look at their art projects the same way again.
Fans of Mo Willems's "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus " and Jon
Klassen's "I Want My Hat Back" will love meeting this willful young
frog with a serious identity crisis. Frog wants to be anything but
a slimy, wet frog. A cat, perhaps. Or a rabbit. An owl? But when a
hungry wolf arrives--a wolf who HATES eating frogs--our hero
decides that maybe being himself isn't so bad after all. In this
very silly story with a sly message, told in hilarious dialogue
between a feisty young frog and his heard-it-all-before father,
young readers will identify with little Frog's desire to be
something different, while laughing along at his stubborn yet
endearing schemes to prove himself right.
