Bookroo's summary

In the Okefenokee Swamp, a wide-mouthed frog loves to ask about other animals' diets. His curiosity takes him from birds to mice, but when he encounters a toothy green creature, he might just become the answer to someone else's question. Will his wide mouth get him into trouble, or will he hop away unscathed? Dive into this pop-up adventure to find out!

From the publisher

From the Okefenokee Swamp comes a frog with a wide mouth that he just loves to use. He’s particularly interested in the eating habits of other creatures found in the great outdoors–that is, of course, until he comes upon a big green one with lots of teeth who finds wide-mouthed frogs simply delicious.
