Fredi and her Lily Pad Band go to Portugal

Fredi and her Lily Pad go to Portugal. Fredi is Fredrika, a lively saxophone playing frog and band leader. In this second book, Fredi and her Lily Pad Band go on a world tour and the first stop is Portugal. As the adventure begins, Fredi's Fabulous Flying Machine crashes into rocks as it comes to shore, and the band’s instruments wind up in the harbor. The band goes on a local journey to find cork to repair the instruments. During the journey, the band comes across characters that guide them to the Whistler Tree. The birds of the tree tweet a rap of how to harvest the cork of the oak tree. The instruments are saved in time for the beach party where the Lily Pad Band performs. The book includes a word search and crossword puzzle. The book can be used in the classroom with social studies, science and music. As a bonus, lesson plans are included for a teacher’s resource as well as directions to dance The Twist. Free download of Twistin' Baby at www.marshaheydt.com.
