Ben Rudnick and Friends’ most requested song, “A Frog Named Sam,” now leaps onto the stage in A Frog Named Sam: The Musical. The story begins with Sam returning to his pond after an exhausting world tour. Ready for a rest, Sam is distraught to find his pond in disrepair: overgrown and nearly waterless. As if that weren’t enough, an alien, Tripp, crash lands into the pond.
The sound track tells the story of Sam and Tripp’s new friendship and their intergalactic adventures to save the pond. Featuring songs from the band’s many award winning recordings (“Race Car,” “I Got a New Friend”), it introduces new, sure to be classic, BR&F tunes (“The Adventure Song,” “When Something’s Got You Terribly Blue”) and a reimagined and more fun than ever version of “Macaroni and Cheese.”
A bonus track, “Coney Island Crazy,” features Ben and his pals bringing to life the thrill of the vintage amusement park in a must-dance blast of rock and roll.
Ben Rudnick and Friends, pioneers of the Kindie music scene, have produced eleven recordings, played hundreds and hundreds of concerts and have won a variety of accolades including seven Parents’ Choice Awards.
The adventure continues.

about
I asked my daughter why she liked to read books so much. She said "anything can happen when you're reading a book."
lyrics
Reading a book, anything can happen when
you’re reading a book
Go to the shelf, pick up a book, take a second look
Paddle down the river in an old canoe
Pick up a book, you can travel far too
Maybe travel slowly, maybe go fast
It’s all a great journey as the words go past
Reading a book, anything can happen when
you’re reading a book
Go to the shelf, pick up a book, take a second look
Saddle up your pack and get on a horse
Time to take a journey, time to get lost
Words fill up the pages, pages fill books
Chapters help you stop for the nighttime
Reading a book, anything can happen when
you’re reading a book
Go to the shelf, pick up a book, take a second look
You can’t judge a book by its cover
You can’t know the end unless you start
So the best thing to do and
You can do it too
Reading a book, anything can happen when
you’re reading a book
Go to the shelf, pick up a book, take a second look
Wild kingdom spread out at your feet
The king of the jungle thinks you’re a neat treat
Screaming, crazy man comes out of the sky
Asks “how’re you doing”,” you fly… away…
Reading a book, anything can happen when
you’re reading a book
Go to the shelf, pick up a book, take a second look
Reading a book, anything can happen when
you’re reading a book
Go to the shelf, pick up a book, take a second look
