Probably not much.' From there, every page features an animal, sometimes alone, sometimes with a mother, saying, 'On my first day.' The animals featured range from the common (giraffe, tiger, otter, sea lion) to the uncommon (sifaka, capybara, tapir, parent bug, Darwin's frog.) The animals are chosen for the wide range of experiences they have on their first day of life, from being pushed out of a nest, racing to the water and, in the case of the Darwin's frog, crawling out of his father's mouth where he lived as a tadpole in a special pouch in dad's throat.Label The frog book Title The frog book Statement of responsibility Steve Jenkins & Robin Page Creator
