(1) How did the frog feel when he broke his leg? Unhoppy.
Frogs hop when they move. If they broke their legs they couldn't hop and they must feel unhappy. The author put unhappy and hop together and got the funny word, unhoppy.
(2) How did the frog lose his car? It got TOAD away.
When you park your car in a no parking area, your car will be towed away, meaning pulled away by a tow truck. The word towed sounds the same with toad, a kind of amphibians usually thought to be a friend to a frog in the children stories.
