28th July 2016
Price: £11.99
The hilarious sequel to the bestselling Oi Frog! will have children rolling around with laughter. Winner of the 2017 Laugh Out Loud Picture Book Award. Shortlisted for the Sainsbury’s Children’s Book Award 2016.
Frog’s had enough, he’s the changing the status quo! Cat insists that there are rules – only mules sit on stools, no one but hares should sit on chairs and however irritating, dogs MUST sit on frogs.
‘Well, I’m changing the rules,’ said the frog.
‘From now on, dogs sit on logs, not frogs!’
And everyone else is going to have to sit somewhere else too. Will Cat want to sit on gnats instead of cushy mats? Will spiders like sitting on gliders? Will whales be happy to sit on nails? And, most importantly, where is FROG going to sit?
Praise for Oi Frog!:
‘An absolute treat.’ – Daily Mail
‘Everyone will love it.’ – The Guardian

Guaranteed to become the bedtime read of choice for adult readers as well as the children listening!
Bold, bright and creative, it's funny too!
This is a gigglingly delightful book, a perfect match of words and pictures to entertain again and again
Such fun!
The fun of matching a nonsensical rhyme for each character will have kids shrieking with laughter as each new illustration is viewed. And new readers will swiftly acclimate to the repetitive pattern and smart vocabulary. A triumphant sequel.
This is a side-splitting follow up to the hugely popular Oi Frog! which blends the winning formula of bright eye-catching illustrations with witty rhyming text.
If there was an award for the funniest picture book of the year, it would go to Oi Dog ... it's got the 'again' factor in spades
A wonderful and sophisticated rhyming game of a book
This word-twisting, rhyme-busting story (a sequel to Oi Frog!) is beautifully written and drawn, packed with animals all sitting on things they rhyme with. There's something to enjoy on each page.
A bossy amphibian persists in trying to overturn established picture-book precedent in the vivid and goofy pages of "Dog on a Frog?" (Oi Dog!) by the husband-and-wife team of Kes and Claire Gray, with droll illustrations by Jim Field.
I defy anyone not to like this wonderful book. The punchline is hilarious and brings the house down every time I read it to children and adults. an essential buy for EYFS and KS2 class libraries
It's not often I laugh out loud when reading picture books. This was one of those rare occasions...Great stuff
A sequel to the phenomenally successful Oi Frog, this vibrantly illustrated and brilliantly funny rhyming book will have kids laughing out loud
I think perhaps the Gray/Field team have, between them, managed to out-dog Oi Frog with Oi Dog! It's absolutely un-missable
I simply implore you to buy it so you can enjoy it for yourself! I simply want to say that this was my most anticipated book of the year and it hasn't disappointed. It has exceeded all expectations...And I think it is my 'Book of the Year'!
Hilariously crafted and engagingly illustrated by its creators, this stunning picture book ensures a simple and highly enjoyable read
A gem of a book which gets funnier and funnier as you read through the outrageous suggestions.
