"Then down to the river came a little green frog and a hog from the bog and a dog on a jog, all a-quiver by the river where Marmaduke swam - Marmaduke Duck eating marmalade jam." Wonderful rhyme and hilarious action makes this a truly wonderful readaloud title - wait till you come across llama farmer Palmer!
