Beware of the Frog

An old woman living alone at the edge of a dark, scary wood is protected by her pet frog. The creature easily handles any danger by swallowing each potential evildoer whole. The first villain to meet his fate is Greedy Goblin, followed by Smelly Troll, and finally Giant Hungry Ogre. As each bad guy nears Mrs. Collywobbles's house, he recites a rhyme themed along his unique characteristics. The tale ends with a wicked twist.

I liked this book when the frog ate the monsters. I also liked when the lady turned in to a frog and the pink frog swallowed the green frog. A.D.
