Unit 25                                      Story: Why Does the Frog Croak?

Lesson 1

A. Listen and read.

What sound does a frog make? Croak, croak! It isn't a beautiful sound. But, 

a long time ago, frogs had beautiful voices. They could sing more beautiful 

than the birds. This all changed because of one frog named Bluster.

Bluster had the most beautiful voice of all the animals. When he sang, all 

the other animals came to hear him. They enjoyed listening to him. "Please teach 

us how to sing!" the animals asked. But Bluster always answered in the same way. 

"No, no. My voice is mine. I can not share it," he said.

One morning, Moxie the rabbit and Pluck the lizard talked to the fox and the rat. 

"Bluster has such a big, beautiful voice. Surely, he can share it with us," said Moxie. 

They agreed. Bluster should share his voice with them. It was such a big voice. 

Each animal could have just a small piece of it. Bluster could share his voice with 

each animal.

The animals talked and talked late into the afternoon. They made a plan to take 

Bluster's voice. They decided not to tell the birds. But, they didn't have to tell them! 

The birds were sitting in the tree and they heard the animals' plan.

At midnight, Pluck and Moxie quietly went to Bluster's home. Bluster was sleeping 

in his bed, and without making a sound, they took his voice! They put it into a glass jar.

Pluck and Moxie took the glass jar outside. The other animals were waiting. "Oh, give me my piecel" said the fox. "I want my piece!" said the rat. Suddenly, the jar fell to the ground and it broke. Bluster's voice and the jar were now in a hundred little pieces.
