Synopsis

Whatever you will have, dear frog," said she, "My clothes, my pearls and jewels, and even the golden crown which I am wearing." The frog answered, "I do not care for your clothes, your pearls and jewels, nor for your golden crown, but if you will love me and let me be your companion and play-fellow, and sit by you at your little table, and eat off your little golden plate, and drink out of your little cup, and sleep in your little bed - if you will promise me this I will go down below, and bring you your golden ball up again." The wonderful story of the frog that demands things which are not for a frog and the lovely princess that makes thoughtlessly promises which she doesn't want to keep - based on the classic translation b Margaret Hunt and lovingly illustrated in black and white, so that the print edition can be used as a coloring book. When coloring it is recommended to use only colored pencils to avoid bleed through.
