Bullfrogs & Stuff
There are so many interesting things to know … about the world … about the universe … about The Time Virus and about The Time Wizard.
So, I’ll just add those interesting things here, as I find them.
Bullfrogs
Jeremiah and Jerry the bullfrogs appear in the Time Wizard series. They are based on Indian Bullfrogs. You can see a real Indian Bullfrog here. The vocal sac seems to be divided into three parts and is quite extraordinary!
Also, this is a wonderful song that we all love. Before I launched The Time Virus, I wrote to Glenn Wheatley, one of the Master’s Apprentices and asked for permission to have one of my friends, Dewayne Everettsmith play the song at the launch of The Time Virus. Dewayne did an amazing job.
If you’d like to see where Jeremiah and Jerry appear in The Time Wizard, I’ll let you know once I’ve finished it.
Three Dog Night - Joy to the World
There’s also a song about Jeremiah being a bull frog … It’s by Three Dog Night.

Cicadas and their ‘Wall of Sound’
The Marescimar series often talks about a ‘wall of sound’ coming from insects, especially cicadas. Depending on where you live, you may not know the sound of cicadas. So, please click on this link to hear the ‘wall of sound’ they make by clicking their legs together very quickly.
Conkers
In Time Wizard we see some children playing a game called conkers. If you’d like to see how to play the game, see this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QmCuLrkyXB8
