d I think it is very interesting. But is there any other clever thing you can do besides catching flies? I can catch flies myself, but I do it with my hand instead of with my tongue.” “I can change my skin,” said the frog, “and _that_ is something which _you_ cannot do.” “No,” said Tommy Smith; “and I do not believe you can do it either. I think you are only laughing at me.” “Well,” said the frog, “as it happens, my skin fits me quite comfortably now, and is not at all too tight, so I do not want to change it yet. But I have a cousin—a toad—who is quite ready to have a new one. He lives a little way off, in the shrubbery; so if you would like to see how he does it, I can bring you to him. He is very good natured, like myself, and if you will only promise to leave off hurting him, as well as me, he will be very pleased to show you, I am sure. I must tell you, too, that he is almost as useful in a garden as I am, for he lives on the same things, and catches flies and slugs just as I do.” HAD A FUNNY LIFE MISTER FROG SAID TOMMY SMITH AND I THINK IT IS VERY INTERESTING BUT IS THERE ANY OTHER CLEVER THING THAT YOU CAN DO BESIDES CATCHING FLIES I CAN CATCH FLIES MYSELF BUT I DO IT WITH MY HAND INSTEAD OF MY TONGUE I CAN CHANGE MY SKIN SAID THE FROG AND THAT IS SOMETHING WHICH YOU CANNOT DO NO SAID TOMMY SMITH AND I DO NOT BELIEVE YOU CAN DO IT EITHER I THINK YOU ARE ONLY LAUGHING AT ME WELL SAID THE FROG AS IT HAPPENS MY SKIN FITS ME QUITE COMFORTABLY NOW AND IS NOT AT ALL TOO TIGHT SO I DO NOT WANT TO CHANGE IT YET BUT I HAVE A COUSIN A TOAD WHO IS QUITE READY TO HAVE A NEW ONE HE LIVES A LITTLE WAY OFF IN THE SHRUBBERY SO IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE HOW HE DOES IT I CAN BRING YOU TO HIM HE IS VERY GOOD NATURED LIKE MYSELF AND IF YOU WILL ONLY PROMISE TO LEAVE OFF HURTING HIM AS WELL AS ME HE WILL BE VERY PLEASED TO SHOW YOU I AM SURE I MUST TELL YOU TOO THAT HE IS ALMOST AS USEFUL IN THE GARDEN AS I AM FOR HE LIVES ON THE SAME THINGS AND CATCHES FLIES AND FLUGS JUST AS I DO
