Froggy World: Where All Your Dreams Come True Hits Retail Outlets on March 1st

Already a leader in value-based family entertainment, Focus on the Family Films joins forces with Whirligig Animation Studios, Inc. to showcase another 3D animated film. Froggy World: Where All Your Dreams Come True, debuts as the second episode in the Ribbits! series.

Ribbits! tells the story of a frog's life in fun, engaging episodes aimed at kids age three and up. While each episode addresses a new truth to live by, children will find the characters, music and scenery from the bayou of Hoppers Landing irresistible.

Sally Mander—the belle of the swamp—makes her debut in this fun-filled adventure showing the importance of friendships. As the story begins, Sally has just won two tickets to the amusement park Froggy World, making her the envy of every schoolfrog. Now, everybody wants to be her friend. When Sally chooses selfishness, she finds herself lonely, disappointed and bored. But a surprise ending reveals a reward beyond what she ever expected.

"I'm so excited to see this second episode in the Ribbits! series, as it features some cutting-edge computer animation techniques the team hadn't tried yet," said creator Bob Garner. "Froggy World is full of zany fun and fantasy, yet the life lessons are what kids will take away."

Zonderkidz Publishing and Focus on the Family Films sold over 63,000 copies in six months of Ribbits! first episode, Hero of Hopper's Landing. The first episode was also the gold recipient of the Telly Awards for "Best Animation" and the silver recipient for "Best Children's Program". Froggy World promises to be an even bigger hit with kids.
