Description

Froggy is getting a pet-and only a dog will do! Mom has agreed- Froggy can have a pet. Off to the pet store they go. Mom would prefer a bunny or some mice, but Froggy and his little sister, Pollywogilina, have their hearts set on a doggy. And when Froggy sees the little dog with big brown eyes, he begs to take her home. Froggy promises he'll take care of Doggy- put on her collar, take her for a walk, and teach her to sit up and beg. But Doggy proves harder to train than Froggy anticipated-and he'd forgotten about pooperscooper duty! "Peppy illustrations capture Froggy with his new pup, as well as his disdain for the dreaded pooper-scooper. This one won't disappoint his loyal fans."-Booklist
