Book Description

This is a funny, rhyming picture-book poem about a happy dog who wears eyeglasses so he can see. His only problem is flies keep getting behind the lenses causing him fall. So, he has a seeing eye frog on his head to keep the flies away. The dog stops stumbling into things, (from having swatted at flies), and the frog gets a free ride with free meals. As they help each other, they become friends. Eventually, the frog discovers a helpful character riding on top of his own head, and then that newly discovered character learns of a helpful character on top of his own head, too. Everyone gets along great...even though they are different species. The real story is about my dog Happy who had epilepsy. I always wished for a way to heal Happy. Even with excellent veterinary care, his life was still a challenge for him. One Christmas we found him bumping against the back door having a paddling seizure. I rushed him to the vet only two miles. What a Wonderful, caring doctor!!! He, his assistant and I took turns by Happy's side for three straight days and nights. His medication and lots of extra love gave him a long and happy life. I miss Happy. I emailed pictures of him playing with my youngest son to an accomplished artist, Ananta Mohanta, (who is also a sculptor), on the other side of the world. Accomplished is an understatement. I can hardly draw a stickman, but Sabuj...(that's his nickname)...brings art to life. The Bob The Seeing Eye Frog Coloring Book is exactly the same as the actual, full-color paperback book, including all text, except...the interior is in Black & White. This enables and encourages children to explore and to develop their own style of artistry while emulating a professional artist. They also will be able to easily add text and characters to the storyline as they become authors themselves. This is the kind of book which you and your children will enjoy together for many years to come. I always laugh when I read it. I hope you do, too:)
