Frog Trouble Deluxe SongBook by Sandra Boynton

  Sandra Boynton has long been a favorite in our household. In fact her name was the FIRST author he recognized and knew the name of. My son loves the stories, the drawings, and more recently the interactive apps.  I love the uniqueness of her characters, the fun that is held within each line and the time we get to spend together reading.  With that in mind you must know that I am INCREDIBLY excited to review her newest and most country creation FROG TROUBLE And Eleven Other Pretty Serious Songs. I would never dare to call any of Sandra Boynton works ordinary, but this new release is on the other end of the spectrum of her usual line. This CD and Song book combo brings together Sandra's quirky writing with the musical talents of Alison Krauss, Ben Folds, Brad Paisley, Fountains of Wayne (MY FAVORITE) as well as many more. With titles like I Got a Dog, Trucks, and Alligator Stroll as well as the title song Frog Trouble, this is a country CD with a kid friendly twist. I LOVE IT.  The book contains the written lyrics of each song with an illustration, a choosing the right name for your pet section, guide, and instructions on how to do the "Alligator Stroll". Part two of the book also includes lyrics and sheet music so you could play the songs yourself and part three has all the bios of all the musicians. This book is AMAZING.
