Description
A witty, rhyming story that celebrates how we can all be different and still be friends.
All Bob really wants is to be a ROCKET FROG, but the Rocket Frogs have other ideas: 'To be in our crew, you have to be smooth! You haven't got our beat. And you ain't got our moves!' But as Bob—and the Rocket Frogs—will find out, the best friends are the ones who accept you as you are: "You see, I learned a lesson, something wise and true... Friends that are worth having, love you because you're YOU!"
An uplifting story that celebrates individuality and encourages children to be inclusive of others.
