This frog is made out of shells and paint. I didn’t make him, he came from a yard sale. My mom collects frogs. She has 100s of them, some of them very kitschy. I grabbed this one off the shelf and sent it on in, because .. well, just look at him!
The messy glue and crooked eyes are definitely a big plus.

I’m not even sure that frogs live in the jungle – they must, right? – but this frog is so cute, made out of my favorite building substance, seashells, that I’m inviting him into the Petting Zoo regardless.
I would like to know what substances were inhaled before the artist began gluing their shells together? The little pink string wrapped around the toothpick arm fishing for the same substance that his own body is made out of makes me love this even more.
(The AWMOK Jungle Animal Petting Zoo is a scenic attraction whose cages are currently being filled to coincide with the release of the upcoming Pomplamoose with Allee Willis “Jungle Animal” VideoSong and online music game and contest. Jungle tamer, AWMOK creator, curator and charming hostess, Allee Willis, me, will be steadily leading jungle animals to their cages over the next 1-2 months or so as you bring them here until the song is released. If ever there ever was a category that was primed to be kitschified it’s that of “Jungle Animal” as all the stripes, spots and fur have been inspiration for designers since the beginning of time. I thank you all in advance for placing your jungle pets in such an illustrious cage as The Allee Willis Museum of Kitsch. Keep them coming!)

Your little guy is so charming. I love the poka dot design accent. I just loooove frogs. Any shape or size. Frogs may well be the only theme I ever collected. If there was a special occasion, a new frog in some form was added to my collection. One day, I lined them all up and gave each a kiss. Soon after my prince came into my life. As time went on, my collection was passed on to other frog lovers. Shortly, I’ll snap photos of my 2 remaining frogs decades later I received from my Prince.

Yes, photograph the frogs!

That crooked expression is priceless, but I wish I understood the body parts the polka dots were supposed to be!
