Cuckoo!

Five Green and Speckled Frogs by Priscilla Burris

Summary:  Five green and speckled frogs sitting on a speckled log eating some most delicious bugs...

This rhyme teaches children to count down from five to one with the help of frogs that are generously spotted with glittery foil throughout the book.  Five frogs eat bugs as they sit on a log, but one by one they jump into the cool pool until all are gone.

Five Green and Speckled Frogs

Five green and speckled frogs

Sat on a speckled log

Eating some most delicious bugs

One jumped into the pool

Where it was nice and cool

Then there were four green speckled frogs
