"Yes, you have had a funny life, Mr. Frog," said Tommy Smith, "and I think it is very interesting. But is there any other clever thing you can do besides catching flies? YES YOU HAVE 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
ntil, at last, the little brown thing with a tail, that swam about like a fish in the water, has changed into a little baby frog, that hops about on the land. Then this little baby frog grows larger and larger, until, at last, he becomes a fine fat frog, as big and as handsome as I am.” “It all seems very curious,” said little Tommy Smith; “and I never knew anything about it before.” “That is because nobody ever told you,” said the frog, “and you have never thought of finding out for yourself. But have you not passed by ponds in the spring time and seen those little brown things with tails that I have been telling you about swimming about in them?” “Oh yes, I have!” said Tommy Smith; “but I always thought that those were tadpoles.” “They are tadpoles,” said the frog, “but they are young frogs for all that. A little tadpole grows into a big frog, just as a little boy grows into a big man. So you see, what a funny life mine has been, and what a lot of curious things have happened to me.” EFORE AND THEY GO ON LOOKING MORE AND MORE LIKE ONE UNTIL AT LAST THE LITTLE BROWN THING WITH A TAIL THAT SWAM ABOUT LIKE A FISH IN THE WATER HAS CHANGED INTO A LITTLE BABY FROG THAT HOPS ABOUT ON THE LAND THEN THIS LITTLE BABY FROG GROWS LARGER AND LARGER TILL AT LAST HE BECOMES A FINE FAT FROG AS BIG AND AS HANDSOME AS I AM IT ALL SEEMS VERY CURIOUS SAID LITTLE TOMMY SMITH AND I NEVER KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT IT BEFORE THAT IS BECAUSE NOBODY EVER TOLD YOU SAID THE FROG AND YOU HAVE NEVER THOUGHT OF FINDING OUT FOR YOURSELF BUT HAVE YOU NOT PASSED BY PONDS IN THE SPRING AND SEEN THOSE LITTLE BROWN THINGS WITH TAILS THAT I HAVE BEEN TELLING YOU ABOUT SWIMMING ABOUT IN THEM OH YES I HAVE SAID TOMMY SMITH BUT I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT THOSE WERE TADPOLES THEY ARE TADPOLES SAID THE FROG BUT THEY ARE YOUNG FROGS FOR ALL THAT A LITTLE TADPOLE GROWS INTO A BIG FROG JUST AS A LITTLE BOY GROWS INTO A BIG MAN SO YOU SEE WHAT A FUNNY LIFE MINE HAS BEEN AND WHAT A LOT OF CURIOUS THINGS HAVE HAPPENED TO ME
