But Froggy soon discovers that caring for a dog is more challenging than he imagined.

Join Froggy on this delightful adventure as he learns the ups and downs of pet ownership, proving once again why everyone loves his resilient spirit.

From the publisher

A pet!

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.

Mom cautions Froggy about all the new responsibilities he will have taking care of Doggy, but Froggy’s sure there will be no problem. He doesn’t count on Doggy being more difficult to train than he expected.

Froggy always lands himself in a pickle, but he always bounces back. That’s why everyone loves him!
