FROGGY PLAYS SOCCER Froggy couldn't sleep.  He looked out  the window.  The full moon was rising. It looked like a soccer ball.  " Tomorrow's the big game! "  he said out loud.  "If we beat the Wild Things we win the City Cup!"  Froggy was bursting to go and he went to the soccer field with his father. He made mistakes many time. He was told that he must not use his hands, but he used his hands to catch a ball before the net. But, finally, he stuck his hands in his mouth and power-kicked the ball and the ball smack into the goal!!! I read like this book very much!! It was a so funny story. My favorite scene was that he stuck his hands in his mouth to avoid using his hands😂 Please read once!!

FROGGYS HALLOWEEN For Froggy, Halloween meant candy. But it also meant dressing up. And he wondered, "What should I be for Halloween?" "I know" cried Froggy. "Super Frog" "Flying over the city. Faster than a dragonfly! Stronger than a bullfrog!" A week before Halloween, he dreamed of dressing up as various things, such as Super frog. However, he wanted become something scarier, so he decided to dress up like vampire, but it was not good. So all week at school, he wondered. In the morning of Halloween, he became the Frog Prince. That night, all the ghosts and goblins crept out to trick-or-treat, and he was given tons of candy in his candy bag. But, his sword had torn a hole in it, so by the time he got home his candy was all gone... This was a fanny book. Finally, his mother made chocolate-covered flies, so he looks so happy.

"I want to do it all by myself!" So Froggy flopped into the kitchen - flop flop flop. "You'll need flour," said his father. "And sugar and chocolate." "I know!" cried Froggy.  Froggy prepared for his mother's birthday with his father. Froggy tried to make cake. And while waiting for the cake to bake, they blew up the balloons. Then, they sat the table. After that, he opened the oven door, but the cake exploded, so he make a fresh mud pie with candle in it instead. Finally, His mother really rejoiced.
