5.0 out of 5 starsTimeless and funny...
By Skanning on December 3, 2014
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
No words in this "frog" series....but these books are truly delightful. As an adult I chuckle to myself. Since the pictures/artwork is reasonably detailed, a small child has to take the time to see the details - mainly the facial expressions of the characters <again, these are very funny>. A child can narrate the story as you go one page at a time. I bought this series years ago for my daughters and I am now purchasing them again for my grand-daughters. Gotta love them :-)

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat speech-language tool
By M. Palasik VINE VOICE on January 28, 2011
Format: Hardcover
I am a speech-language pathologist and I like to use wordless (or almost wordless) books with my preschoolers sometimes to practice their speech sounds in a conversational context, as well as informally assess their sentence structure and story telling skills.

This is the story of a frog who has gotten away from the boy who was carrying him. The frog gets into some mischief throughout his adventure, such as trying to eat a bee and getting stung, disrupting a picnic, breaking a toy boat, and drinking a baby bottle.

My students did not seem to like this book as much as other ones, which surprised me. I think it may be because the pictures are not in color. I think the pictures are very well done and full of detail and emotion. Mayer has quite a few books like this that tell a story without words and they are all beautifully done.

Great preschool book.

5.0 out of 5 starsLove these books !
By carol chenoweth on May 15, 2013
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
I first gave these books to my nephew 35 years ago, then a few years later got them for my own children, and just bought them again for my granddaughter - the illustrations are marvelous and it's so much fun to have a small child tell me the story as they view the pictures - no wrong way for them to create the story based on the wonderful pictures - these books are timeless treasures !

4.0 out of 5 starsBEST THING EVER for kids of many ages
By Lynn on April 19, 2014
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This series, evocative pictures with no words, are the best thing ever for kids who can read, or not. They love these books for MANY years and it is fun to "tell" them the story, or have them "tell" it to you or themselves. It was the first book my grandspn, at age 1 1/2, LOVED, and picked every time, to "read". When I bought him the whole series, he loved them. (My sons also loved them, and saved them!) Mercer Meyer, of course, is a genius. All kids love the Frog series!

5.0 out of 5 starsAwesome
By Manish Chopra on October 15, 2013
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
Probably the best series of Wordless books. Great for a child who struggles with creative imagination as the child has to provide the words for each character and try to imagine the story as it unfolds on each page. Very good illustrations and storyline.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat books
By Momatt1234 on February 27, 2010
Format: Hardcover
My kids love these books! They can sit and tell the story to themselves or I can read it to them and we can talk about all the facial expressions and what they could be thinking or saying! I think a great thing to have in any kids library!

5.0 out of 5 starsA wonderful kids book with rich and humorous illustrations.
By A Customer on August 7, 1999
Format: Paperback
The story of Frog's adventures and mis-adventures in the park are told with subtle and humorous illustrations. Toddlers, pre-schoolers and even beginning readers will smile and laugh at the encounters between Frog and other park visitors.

5.0 out of 5 starsgood teaching aid for autistic children
By Nea on October 28, 2008
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
I loved these books growing up. Each time I opened the book I could make new stories and discover new details I hadn't seen the time before. This book, as well as other wordless children's books, have been great tools in assisting our autistic son to use correct usage of speech. It enables him to learn discriptive words and sequence of events while he tells us the story from his perspective. In addition the illustrator uses excellent skill in portraying emotion in the animals and child. This also helps my child learn about cause and effect that create certain emotions. I think this illustrated book is the benchmark for other picture books to follow.
