10 The Clever Frog

It was a hot day. The sun was shining

brightly in the sky. A little frog was jumping

here and there. He was feeling very hot

and tired. Suddenly, he saw a pond filled

with water. He quickly jumped into it.

The frog swam in the cool water for a long
time. He felt better.

He came out of the pond. He started looking
for a cool place to rest. He saw a big rock.

He jumped onto it. Then he looked around.

He spotted a bush on top of a hill. He
thought, ‘That seems to be a good place to

rest.’ He started hopping towards it.

There was a tiger sitting under

a tree. He was looking for food.

He saw the frog and thought,
‘I am hungry and cannot find

any big animal. Let me eat this

frog at once.’ He pounced on

the frog and caught him.
