My Frog and I

by Jan Mark, Lesley Harker (Illustrator)

Bugsy was my lucky frog - until he is frognapped by someone in Class 7JF. I got him back though, and now I'm best friends with his frognapper even though I don't know who he is and we communicate by notes. It's better that way, but who could my friend be?
