    DEDICATED TO MY DECEASED SONS TOM AND TROY

    I remember the children’s stories when I was a child. My goal was to write stories with both factual and fictional content, stories that are both educational and entertaining. These stories are designed to give children an imaginary insight into the animal world. My hope is that you will enjoy reading these stories to your children as much as I have had in writing them. I also want to dedicate this story book to my two deceased sons Tom and Troy. The photo on the back cover of this book is my wonderful wife, myself and our dog Willy.

    Fritz the Frog

    #1

    Frogs are common all over the world. As far as Fritz was concerned, he wasn’t common at all. He thought he was the best looking frog anywhere. It was plain for Fritz to see that all the frogs in his pond were quite common looking. He thought how sad it was for them. He was thinking that when you’ve got it, flaunt it!

    Every day he would croak louder than any of the frogs. He was much larger than the rest of the frogs. He was also able to out jump all the other frogs.

    He supposed that being the greatest was something he had to live with. A lot of the frogs resented Fritz, at least all of the male frogs. The lady frogs thought he was great. Fritz just ignored them. They just weren’t up to his standards.

    Fritz had staked out his place in the pond where it was just perfect. Of course, a lot of the frogs wanted to be in the same spot. Well, they all knew that as long as Fritz was living there, it was off limits.

    Fritz also protected a much larger portion of the lake than all of the other frogs.

    Every once in a while Fritz wondered why no one ever came by just to hang out. It was too bad that everyone, except him, had such bad attitudes.

    He wondered why they couldn’t just accept the fact that he was special. As far as he was concerned, it was very obvious.

    One day, some of the frogs decided to have a private meeting, without Fritz of course.

    They weren’t concerned that Fritz might show up. He wouldn’t know anything about it since he just ignored everyone anyway. Only the male frogs showed up for the meeting. The lady frogs didn’t come, because they just couldn’t bring themselves to think anything bad about Fritz.

    He was of course the most handsome frog of all. At the meeting the male frogs thought they had a great plan. They were all tired of Fritz. They thought they had done all they could to be nice to him. Nothing seemed to work. The time for action had come. Anyway, they were all tired of hearing the female frogs talking about how wonderful Fritz the Frog was.

    All the frogs knew that every year there was a frog pageant. Somehow they had to get Fritz to go. Then, maybe he might move on to greater things. At least they hoped so. The leader of the meeting suggested that one of the male frogs needed to go and talk to Fritz and try to convince him to go and compete. Needless to say, there were no volunteers. They all decided to take a number. The lowest number
