Publisher Description

It's Father's Day at last, and Froggy is so-o-o excited. "We're going to play golf!" he tells his dad. Oh no. Dad says Froggy's too little for golf. "But you're just the right size to play miniature golf!" he explains. At the fun park, Froggy discovers mini golf is fun-especially once he figures out how to face the right way. With his beginner's luck, Froggy makes a hole in one! But his next shot hits his dad on the head-bonk!-and that's only the beginning. All ends well, though, when Froggy presents his dad with a special coffee mug he decorated in school- To the Best Dad I Ever Had!
