The following song was written about our little book by one of Amazon.com's top 100 reviewers, Amanda Richards, who hails from Georgetown, Guyana (South America)
A Frawg he would a hunting go
(To the tune of "A Frog He Would A'Wooing go")
Frawg sailed in a tortoise shell, mm mm, mm mm,
A gath'ring spores and medicines,
And selling his spices and plant specimens, mm mm, mm mm.
He met up with a dragonfly, mm mm, mm mm,
Searching for nectar for his kin
Frawg came to his rescue by scooping him in, mm mm, mm mm.
The flowers are dying in Terramore, mm mm, mm mm,
No insects left to chirp or cheep
The King's daughter Lily has fallen asleep, mm mm, mm mm.
The Hua plant was still alive, mm mm, mm mm,
It flowered only once per year
With pollen that could banish hunger and fear, mm mm, mm mm.
Frawg took some pollen and went to the King, mm mm, mm mm,
Who begged his friend to lend a hand
To destroy the snakes and heal Mudgunkland, mm mm, mm mm.
He gave him a scimitar made of gold, mm mm, mm mm,
And sent him with a bullfrog guide
With Leapin and Hoppin right there by his side, mm mm, mm mm.
So off they rode to face the foe, mm mm, mm mm
The armadillo and weasel too
Were happy to sign up with this motley crew, mm mm, mm mm
Cobraxas is the Lord of Snakes, mm mm, mm mm,
We all know he's behind all this
He's tending his cauldron with a creepy hissssssss, mm mm, mm mm.
Soon there is fighting in the South , mm mm, mm mm,
The tree frog army sounds the horn,
While Frawg and his team seek out the Whistlethorn, mm mm, mm mm.
When they get to Cobraxas' lair, mm mm, mm mm,
Frawg makes use of a magic cloth ,
Confirming that many cooks DO spoil the broth, mm mm, mm mm.
What's next in line for the tale from Yore, mm mm, mm mm,
The very next thing we'd like to see
Is a movie made for the whole world to see, mm mm, mm mm.
Now this is the end of this little song, mm mm, mm mm
A little song one verse too long
Buy this one today and you wouldn't go wrong, mm mm, mm mm
