If worms wiggle and bugs jiggle, what do frogs and dogs do? Youngsters will love to turn each flap and trigger all the leaping, creeping, bouncing, pouncing, sliding and gliding action.

About this title

From Publishers Weekly:

"Worms . . . wiggle. Bugs . . . jiggle. Frogs . . . leap. Caterpillars . . . creep." The simplicity of the imagery that introduces the first few pages of this book continues throughout the remaining text. "Puppies . . . bounce. Kittens . . . pounce. Lions . . . stalk. But I . . . walk." With those few words, and with colorfully illustrated and skillfully executed pop-up paper engineering, Pelham ( The Human Body ) and Foreman have created an appealing pop-up book, though it's somewhat fragile for readers at the younger end of the age range. Ages 4-6.

From School Library Journal:

PreSchool-K-- A small-sized, brightly painted watercolor pop-up book. The right page folds out to display the pop-up creature in this book of action verbs: "worms. . .wiggle, bugs. . .jiggle, frogs. . .leap, caterpillars. . .creep." Many of the pop-ups pull out into several layers of animal, making for an amusing display of lively activity. The watercolors are beautifully vibrant. While this will not serve will as a circulating item, it will be a hit in preschool story hours. --Jacqueline Elsner, Athens Regional Library, Ga.
