Two Birds and a Frog
The Frog lived in a lake. It had two friends, two big birds. But one day birds wanted to go to another lake.
“My good friends take me with you,” said the frog. “All right,” said one of the birds. “Do you see this stick? I shall take one end of the stick; my friend will take the other end. And you must take the stick in your mouth in the middle. But you must not speak! Do not open your mouth!”
“All right!” said the frog. So one bird took one end of the stick in its beak. Another bird took the other end. The frog took the stick in its mouth in the middle.
And they flew to another lake. When they flew they saw many children in the field. And the children saw the birds too.
“Oh, look!” they cried. “What is it? What are the birds carrying? Is it a big clock?”
The frog opened the mouth and said: :”I am not a clock? I am a frog!” And flop! The frog fell down to the ground.
What a silly frog!
