Finklehopper Frog

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Brian Lies. In jaunty rhyme, a lesson about individuality is hidden beneath the "jazzy jogging suit" of Finklehopper Frog, as he gets the jogging bug and, once properly clad, tries to join the other animals. Finkle realizes frogs aren't built to jog, but hopping is fine, too. The bright, zany illustrations and rhythmic text help overcome the thinness of the story.
