We're at the Frog Fiesta.
It's a festival for frogs,
where the frogs are dancing happily
in cowboy boots and clogs...

Come join the festivities with Kenn Nesbitt's irresistible rhythms, hilarious happenings, and sly surprises that keep kids laughing and reading.

A Festival for Frogs serves up seventy new poems about ninja kittens, dozing dragons, missing math teachers, unsteady teddy bears, and much, much more.

REVIEWS

"You will love Kenn Nesbitt's latest riotous collection, full of joy, witty humour, and clever wordplay. Certain to inspire, A Festival for Frogs is a must for families and teachers everywhere." -Sue Hardy-Dawson, award-winning children's poet, picture book writer and illustrator

"Hilarious from beginning to end. Why are you reading this dumb quote instead of buying the book?! It's hysterical!!" -Chris Harris, New York Times bestselling author of I'm Just No Good at Rhyming and My Head Has a Bellyache.

A Festival for Frogs is delightful in every way. In the great tradition of poets like Shel Silverstein and Jack Prelutsky, Kenn Nesbitt has a way with words that will delight readers of all ages. -David Lubar, author of My Rotten Life, and scads of other tales that don't rhyme at all.

There once was a poet called Kenn
Who picked up his magical penn,
And wrote funny rhymes
Not just a few times,
But agenn and agenn and agenn.
-Colin West, bestselling poet, illustrator, and author of The Big Book of Nonsense and Never Nudge a Budgie

It's no rumour there is humour
in the poems in these pages -
they are funny, they are punny
And frogtastic for all ages!
-Liz Brownlee, UK National Poetry Day Ambassador and author of Apes to Zebras: An A-Z of Shape Poems

Such the perfectly titled collection! Kenn Nesbitt's newest book of poetry is a festival - a carnival of clever couplets, and a celebration of silly stanzas. Nobody throws a poetry party like Nesbitt! -Eric Ode, poet, songwriter, and author of Stop that Poem!

''Poetry fans young and old are in for a treat with this latest bumper collection from the funny, punny, king of comedic verse, Kenn Nesbitt. Impeccable rhyming and knock-out punchlines abound!'' -Sarah Ziman, children's poet

"Kenn Nesbitt's new book of funny poems for kids, A Festival For Frogs, is a rollicking, frolicking delight. His poems dance with clever wordplay and rhymes, and the situations and subjects are often laugh-out-loud hilarious. It's a worthy, "verse-y," exuberant grin from ear-to-ear and end-to-end." -Amy Losak, author of Wing Strokes Haiku
