Bookroo's summary

Green Wilma, a frog with a taste for flies, finds herself aboard an alien spaceship after a mix-up with a galactic family. As she navigates this unexpected journey, Wilma must find a way back to her pond while the alien child, Blooger, is left on Earth. Can they switch places before supper? This warp-speed comedy unfolds with humor and heart, as Wilma experiences the ride of her life and discovers the true meaning of home.

From the publisher

Green Wilma is so determined to catch a tasty fly that she doesn’t notice a family of galactic visitors to her pond. In a case of mistaken identity, the alien parents beam Wilma on board their spaceship while leaving their child, Blooger, behind. Poor Blooger, stuck on the bewildering planet Earth. Poor Wilma, hungry and confused (though also having the ride of her life!). Will the two be able to switch back in time for supper? It’s a warp-speed comedy sure to please the fans of Tedd Arnold’s Geisel Honor?winning Hi! Fly Guy, his beloved Parts books, and especially Green Wilma, which was an IRA-CBC Children’s Choice book and a PBS Storytime featured selection.
