He visits each potential home only to find it occupied by other animals who then traipse along behind him while he continues his search. "Better Move On, Frog" is centered on a frog searching to find himself a suitable home. Toddlers can chime in and say, "No, the dog isn't his mother!" In that book, a baby bird is searching to find his mother by asking all manner of creatures if he was theirs. To me, this book bears some similarity to P.D. Because of the animals in this book, it's sure to be delightful for the right age group. "Better Move On, Frog" was published the same year I was born: 1982. The illustrations are detailed, but nowhere near the extent of Graeme Base's "Animalia" or "The Eleventh Hour." Since the illustrations are beautiful with enough color and content for a toddler (or even an adult) to enjoy, I'd have guessed the book would have gotten more publicity and praise.
Before being able to read on my own, the story's rhythm, predictability, and cadence, made it easy to memorize the simple dialog. I knew where it was located at each of the three libraries where we went, and checked it out each time. This is most certainly the first book that I ever thought of as 'my favorite'.This was my absolute favorite book at a very young age. "No, mice live there!," the children will say. Toddlers can actively participate by guessing if Frog could live, for example, in a distinctively shaped mouse hole in the baseboard.
