Bookroo's summary
In a peaceful pond, frogs are startled by a pig who suddenly says 'RIBBIT!' Confusion and curiosity spread among the animals. Is the pig mocking them, or does he seek friendship? As they consult a wise beetle, the truth unfolds. Can the animals embrace this unexpected visitor before it's too late? Discover a heartwarming tale of friendship and acceptance.
From the publisher
A group of frogs are living happily in a peaceful pond, until they discover a surprise visitor: a little pink pig. Sitting contentedly on a rock in the middle of their pond, the pig opens his mouth and says: RIBBIT! The frogs are bewildered at first, and then a bit annoyed—“What did that little pig just say?”, “Does he think he’s a frog?”, “Is he making fun of us?”
Soon the pig draws the attention of all the nearby animals; everyone is curious to know what he wants! After much guessing (and shouting) and a visit to the wise old beetle, the animals realize that perhaps the pig was not there to mock them afterall—maybe he just wanted to make new friends! But is it too late? This is a warm, funny, and beautifully illustrated story of friendship, with boisterous RIBBIT!s throughout—perfect for reading aloud
