The lovely, lonely princess wandered along the edge of a pond thinking about finding a mate, but her father's kingdom was poor, and no noble had ever asked for her hand.
Suddenly a large bullfrog jumped up on the bank and said, "Kiss me and you will find a mate."
"What do I have to lose?" thought the princess, as she stooped down and kissed the frog.
Within moments, two frogs jumped happily into the pond and swam out together among the lily pads.
