From the Foreword by the author--The Story of this Story...Nobody knows how or when this story really started. We do know that it was written down in Scotland more than 400 years ago. But it has always been the kind of story that was told and sung to children, instead of being read to them. The grandfathers and grandmothers sang it to the mothers and fathers, and the mothers and fathers sang it to their children, and finally it got to us. Sometimes the grownups might forget some of the words, and the children would make up words they liked better, and put them in the song. And so the ballad, or story, on down through all these hundreds of years, always changed a little bit as each new person tried to sing it. Everyone like his way best....The story of the "Frog and the Mouse" became a part of America, and belongs to all of us today.
