Welcome to the Frog Pond

Welcome to the Four-Eyed FrogBooks website. We’re glad you jumped in.

The good news for you is that you can now order almost any book you’d like to directly from our website — printed books, audio books; even books for your new color Nook, iPad, iPhone, iPod, Android device; for virtually every reader out there except for the one that big company sells…oh gosh, what’s it called? Or, if you so prefer, you can go to the QUICKORDER tab at the top of our page and simply email your request directly to the store.

The Frog currently has families in Florida, Colorado, Ohio, Wyoming, Pennsylvania and a number in California who buy many of their books from a little bookstore in Gualala. They order through emails or by phone.Why? Because they’re on our coast once or twice (or more often) each year, they love independent bookstores, they don’t have one in their neighborhood, so they choose the Frog. One goal with our new website is to make it easier for them to get what they want. We don’t charge shipping on products sent from the store. We don’t charge sales tax for books sent out of state, except for New York. And now, our remote customers can order anything they darn well choose to, directly from foureyedfrog.com!

Here are a few other things you can do, right off the bat!

  • Be the first to know about special sales and bookstore events.
  • Check out the Frog’s most recent best-sellers .
  • Read up-to-date reviews of current and soon-to-be released books. You can even write your own reviews and send them to the Frog. 
  • Find out what great books are on the horizon through IndieBound, the national association of independent bookstores..
  • Let us know what’s important to you.

There’s good news for us, too.

  • We can offer you more than we ever have before.
  • It gives us a brand-new way to fully serve our visitors, even when they’re not on the coast.
  • It makes it easy for us to hear from you.

So there's good news...and bad! This is a new site. There's much we expect to add that's not yet available. And there very well could be mistakes. If you find eBooks that seem priced too high, for example, let us know. If we're missing content you'd really like to have, let us know. If things look goofy, let us know. If you like what you see...let us know.

This is your site, your portal to the Frog when you can't walk through the door. Pretend you're in the store with us. Schmooze. Please. Let us know!

TO BE CONTINUED…

This Holi Facebook Status stunning party joins community gap and tightens up up the relationships. It is the day when people hug each other and wish 'Happy Holi.

American Prometheus

Just finished the Pulitzer Prize winning biography of J. Robert Oppenheimer. What a fabulous read. It's long, but I hardly noticed, and was sorry to reach the end. It's an odyssey that takes us through not just the life of the father of the atomic bomb, but also the American communist party movement, the McCarthy era, the cold war, and much more. This was a wonderful lens through which to view the middle two-thirds of the 20th century. I give it a full five stars.

Congratulations!

The website looks frogtastic! I've removed the link to that other book site I used to use and replaced it with yours. I'll do all my midnight ordering from the Frog from now on.
