Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the transition from play-mode to polite-mode, especially before a family outing or holiday dinner. It follows the energetic Froggy as he joins his parents at a fancy restaurant for their anniversary, only to find that sitting still and using quiet voices is much harder than it looks. Through Froggy's relatable mishaps, the story validates the sensory overwhelm and behavioral challenges of formal settings. While the book gently models what happens when we lose control of our impulses, it focuses primarily on the humor of the situation and the unconditional love of parents. It is a perfect choice for preschoolers and early elementary students (ages 3-7) because it removes the shame from 'naughty' behavior and instead celebrates the joy of finding a middle ground where the whole family can be themselves.
