One day, David was getting bored. His dog was also getting bored. So he went outside his house. He took a ball and whistled to his dog. They both went to the park to play. David threw the ball and his dog went to fetch it. They kept playing and enjoying themselves. But unknown to them, someone was watching them. It was Mr. Frog. He was sitting in the pond. When David took a break, Mr. Frog went to the dog. He boasted, “You can’t jump as high as I can!” And to prove this, he took a giant leap into the air. But just then, David threw the ball and it hit Mr. Frog. He landed head first on the ground with a thump. The dog could not stop laughing. An embarrassed Mr. Frog walked back to the pond quietly. David and his dog kept playing.
