A French-Canadian grandmother prepares her grandson for his first maple-sugaring party by describing the one she first enjoyed sixty years earlier, as well as the process of tapping the maple trees and making syrup and taffy.
A collection of seven tales featuring the many adventures of the rambunctious Froggy, a young frog who always seems to find his way into, and out of, trouble.
As the sun rises and sets, its rays highlight simple aspects and situations of farm life, including the shadow of a cloud, the sizzle of bacon, and the dancing of spoons.
Froggy isn't looking forward to his check-up because he might get a shot but when it's over and he's pronounced a very healthy frog, Dr. Mugwort is the one who dreads Froggy's next visit.
