We'd love to know what you think - it's already proving popular with the under fives who demand to see it over and over.
Make yourself a coffee, turn up the volume, and enjoy some unashamed fun!
The song goes live on itunes et al on Monday 3rd November, so we've been waiting until this week to send out the promo packs to radio stations and press.
We're hoping to upload the video to a site that will enable us to sell the vid for a few pennies for mobile phone use, as we're keen to promote and utilise the digital technology to share the message that books are fun.
Even a short time ago we would not have been able to do this, but this is so exciting - book characters are no longer confined to the flat page, but live and play in any of the many places where kids have access. Maybe not every child has access to the internet at home, but they nearly all have mobile phones, heaven help us! In presenting Frog the Dog as a friend and advocate of safe, silly, and exciting fun, we hope to reach a wider audience than the printed word could achieve.
Frogtastic!
Chris Carter of Bluebird Recording Studios and I both need this to go large for us. We work hard at our respective businesses, but we both need the break into mainstream recognition. We believe this song is good enough to do this for us both.
Please, there is plenty you can do to help, and we need your help to get noticed.
It would be be amazing if you could do any or all of these:
Buy the song from itunes, Napster, Rhapsody of Amazon MP3
Watch it, rate it and review it on youtube - www.youtube.com/frogthedog1
Be our friend and spread the word on myspace - www.myspace.com/frogthedogandthebeachhousegang
Watch the vid and leave us an encouraging message - It gets lonely here sometimes!
Send these links to your friends, and tell every child you meet about Frog the Dog or maybe treat them to a book or toy for Christmas - suitable for kids upto 8yrs old for the books and CD's, and any age for the Frog Ted toy - he's very cool :)
Thank you!
I have to go send out press packs, and then cross my fingers that this takes off so that both Chris and I get noticed enough to earn a salary soon!

Good luck! We'll be crossing fingers toes and pricles too.
Thank you all! Please excuse our shameless blog promotion - it's a dog eat dog world out here you know!
(unless we get lots of sales, and then it might be a dog eat dog biscuit world again :-)
