Froggy Eats Out
By Jonathan London
Print/braille edition, $5.99
In contracted braille
Ages 4-8

It's Froggy's parents' anniversary, so the family heads out to Chez Yum,
a hoity-toity restaurant with tablecloths and flower-filled vases. If
you know anything about Froggy, you know this means trouble!

Froggy only has a few rules to remember - "Be neat, be quiet, and don't
put your feet on the table" - but it's absolutely not that simple.
Froggy fidgets, shakes salt on his hand and licks it, bangs his spoon on
the table, flips his spoon (bonk! oops!), pulls petals off flowers,
sucks on sugar cubes (and ice cubes), and then simply must flop around
singing. Just as he's getting down to actually eating, he spies his
pretty classmate Frogilina, and an embarrassed Froggy ducks under the
tablecloth, sending the spaghetti and sauce flying. The whole family
gives up and heads to a local diner for burgers and flies. 

This fine addition to the much-loved Froggy series serves as a
lighthearted way to approach table etiquette - but mostly it's just good
messy fun.
