Level: Intermediate
Description: A wide-mouthed frog hops around asking various animals what they like to eat. Finally he gets to the alligator, who informs him that he likes to eat wide mouth frogs. Watch the wide-mouthed frog pucker his mouth to make it small and splash away. The animals’ mouths/beaks pop up out of the book. Very good for beginning discussions about food and re-enacting play scenarios.
