Exploring According to Og the Frog

De: Betty G. Birney

Narrado por: John H. Mayer

In the second book in the Og the Frog spinoff of the Humphrey series, Og is ready for adventure and is jumping at the chance to help kids be brave!

Og loves the kids in Room 26, but he's awfully curious about the human world outside his tank! His friend Humphrey has no problem getting out and about, but it's harder for Og because he can't climb the way a hamster can.

But Og never let hard work or fear stop him from going after what he wants. And he's determined to help the tads in Room 26 understand that taking risks can pay off - especially when they are being true to themselves. Whether it's learning that a younger kid can have great ideas, a student who learns differently can have hidden talents, or ideas that seem crazy at first can actually be amazing if you look at them from a different perspective, Og wants everyone to celebrate their talents. And once he fully embraces his frogginess - BING-BANG-BOING - he figures out how to go where no frog has gone before.

Og's frog's-eye view of the world is curious, adventurous, and creative, and the perfect companion to Trouble According to Humphrey.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Inspired to explore by tales of human and frog adventurers, Og manages to make forays outside of his tank in between helping children. . . Punctuated by Og's froggy songs and poems as well as homespun wisdom from his very own Granny Greenleaf, the story hops along at a familiar pace. Readers craving more about Room 26 will enjoy the green frog with a heart of gold." (Kirkus Reviews)

"[Og the Frog] is a poet and maker of songs, both of which appear throughout the book. . . He waxes philosophical at the end of the book, concluding that he is braver than he thought and that if you give new things a try and take chances then you can do amazing things. . . Could make for a light-hearted read-aloud paired with a unit of study on frogs and their habitats." (School Library Connection)

"In this second book in the Og the Frog spin-off of the Humphrey series, Og is determined to experience life outside his tank in Room 26. It will take persistence, a shift in perspective, and embracing his individual skills to achieve his goal." (Publishers Weekly)

Family loves this book

This is the second of the OG the Frog books and my family can't get enough of him. He has a Hamster friend and they have a story line on him too. There are a lot of books telling about his life with Og the Frog. I recommend those and the 2 Og books. Funny and Og makes you hoppy! hehe!

Great 📖📖📖

I liked everything
Nothing was wrong

I never thought 💭 that I would like this book 📖 better than I thought

More from Og's POV

My kids were excited to hear another story from Og's point of view. We've already listened to all the Humphrey books, so it was fun to hear familiar stories from the other angle. Og's stories are perhaps not quite as entertaining as Humphrey's, but still enjoyable to anyone who is a fan of the series.

Great!!! I loved it!!!

We need more Og! I love Og! I just NEED more Og! Where is more Og?!? Tell the auther to make more Og!

Friendship

I loves that a frog and a hamster became friends so much that they worried about each other. Also that Og became an adventurer in summary I LOVED!!!!😁😁😁😁
