Rate this book
Hi there! Come closer, I have a secret to tell you.
I'm a froggy! But not just any froggy, oh no! There are lots of frogs out there: spotted, striped, red-eyed, blue-skinned frogs... But I'm not like any of them. I'm a froggy of a different kind!
I used to be a prince, you know?
"The Adventure of a Frog Who Was Once a Prince" is a funny retelling of the popular folktale "The Princess and the Frog," told in a playful, childlike voice. It introduces kids to hydro energy, and tells the story of a frog who thinks he's born with a crown, a princess who hasn't learned manners, and the life that doesn't always treat frogs and princesses with tolerance!

جميل جميل لاقصى درجة. لطيف ورقيق وكوميدي. هذا الضفدع الذي ظن انه مسحور ويحتاج إلى قبلة اميرة، كما حدث في قصة الأميرة والضفدع، ثم ينتهي الامر بمفاجاة كبيرة.
