Three birds said TWEET TWEET TWEET. Two ducks said WAK WAK. And one big frog said GA-DUNK! In this beloved classic title from husband-and-wife team Susan Schade and Jon Buller, a boy goes to the pond to fish but is interrupted by noisy animals that count their way from one to six with silly sounds.
