One day she dropped her golden ball into the water. She was very unhappy. She sat on the grass and started to cry.Suddenly she heard a voice: “Don’t cry, princess.”She opened her eyes and saw a large green frog. “Oh, help me please, I can’t get my ball.”“I’ll help you,” said the frog, “if I can come and live with you in the palace!”“Yes, yes of course. I promise,” said the princess. So the frog jumped into the water and came back with the ball. The princess took the ball and ran quickly back to the palace. The girl forgot about the frog.The frog was very angry. He followed the princess into the palace and told his story to the King.“A promise is a promise, my daughter.
