You Got to Warm Up a Frog Early

7/9/2007

Once there was a really strange frog. He liked the warm water instead of the cold water. One day he was basking in the sun. He said, “What a beautiful day for a swim in the pond.” The pond was always warm so he jumped right in! Splash! The water was a freezing cold!!! “O no whatever shall I do?” he cried helplessly. There was a child there and he saw that the frog was shivering. He felt bad for the frog. He carefully picked up the frog and gently warmed it up. “You got to warm a frog early,” he said to himself. He started to laugh and the frog started to croak and giggle too. It was a happy day for them both, because the frog had been saved by a jolly old boy. The boy had fun saving the frog. The boy ran to his house and put the frog in his own warm pond.
