Excerpt from the tale: The plants all looked up at Frog. He did have big back legs just like frogs. Toutes les plantes regardèrent Grenouille. Il avait de grandes pattes arrière, comme une grenouille. "I wonder how high Frog can jump," said Rosemary. "That’s an interesting thought," laughed Basil. "Let’s ask him!" « Je me demande à quelle hauteur Grenouille peut sauter », dit Romarin. « Voilà une idée intéressante », dit Basilic en riant. « Demandons-lui ! » The Pansy sisters turned their blue faces towards Frog. "Frog!" they shouted in harmony. "Jump!" Les sœurs Pensées tournèrent leurs visages bleus vers Grenouille. « Grenouille ! Saute ! » crièrent-elles en même temps. Frog looked down at the plants in the little blue flowerpot. "Me?" asked Frog. "I can’t jump." The plants thought that Frog must be shy; they all knew that frogs could jump. Grenouille baissa la tête vers les plantes dans le petit pot de fleurs bleu. « Moi ? » demanda Grenouille. « Je ne peux pas sauter ». Les plantes pensèrent que Grenouille était timide; elles savaient bien que les grenouilles pouvaient sauter.
