Princeton Public Library

3rd Floor Pop-up Programming Area

Stop by the third floor for a kit to make a "Wide-Mouthed Frog" craft at home while supplies last.

"The Wide-Mouthed Frog" by Keith Faulkner is a popular children's pop-up book, illustrated by Jonathan Lambert. The book retells a traditional American tale about a curious frog who asks other animals what they eat, including a bird, a mouse and, finally, a big alligator. When the alligator replies that he eats "delicious wide-mouthed frogs," Frog's humourous response will leave young readers chuckling.
