Illustrated by
Martine Gourbault.
When a boy goes to the bay to look for frogs, he sees a blue heron, a hummingbird, a turtle, and many other animals. Although somehow he misses the grinning frogs that follow him all around (young listeners will have fun spotting them), he still recognizes he is having a lucky wildlife-spotting day. The gentle rhyming text is accompanied by soft, occasionally silly, pencil crayon illustrations.
