This rhyming
story showcases a cast of Australian animals who are all eager to watch as they
are being part of the fun. The illustrations have that classic, yet modern
Australian feel, there is no mistaking the authenticity of this story.
The creatively
crafted words provide the story’s rhythm that matches the beat of the dancing
frogs and their supporting orchestra. The musical beat gives the story heart
that will instantly resonate with children, capturing their attention.
Lush grasslands, gum trees in the breeze, blue sapphire skies that change colour to the deep purple of an approaching storm – gives the story an electric feel and the ambience of an impending performance.
The reader can
almost hear the orchestra strike up a tune. The Australian bush provides a
magical canvas for the story to shine; banksias, humming cicadas and
overflowing billabongs.
Opening night
arrives – will all their hard work come together? Or will someone forget their
lines?
Get comfy and
settle in for a story your child will want you to read over and over again.
