Scampering twins Mokie and Bik are back in this second chapter book of nautical adventures aboard the Bullfrog, and now that their father has come back from sailing on the illy-ally-o, the twins are ready to take their floating home out to sea. Inspired by her own father's tales of growing up on a boat, Australian author Wendy Orr offers another irresistible collection of yarns, told in playful, lyrical language for readers and listeners up to 9. "In this sequel to Mokie & Bik, Dad has returned from sailing around the world to live with the energetic twins, their mother, the housekeeper, two dogs, and a turtle aboard their houseboat.... Episodes involve Mokie and Bik diving overboard to rescue Waggles the dog, steering Bullfrog toward a barge when it unexpectedly heads out to sea, and going eye-to-enormous-eye with a whale. Studded with invented, twin-speak words and lyrical, rhyming phrases ... fans of the first book will enjoy the imagery and wordplay. [Jonathan] Bean's high-spirited illustrations add to the fun."—Booklist
