Synopsis

I Found a Frog is a story describing the unique transformation of a tadpole into a frog. It is fun, educational, and just may have you catching a tadpole so you and your child can see it for yourself.

Even though I have grand children of my own, it seems like it was only yesterday when I returned home from school to find a frog in my bedroom.

Meskipun aku telah memiliki cucu, tapi terasa seperti kemarin ketika aku pulang dari sekolah dan menemukan seekor katak di atas tempat tidurku.

My mother just chuckled when I yelled out,"I found a frog on my bed." Now, she knew that I would eventually find one but she let me discover a wonder of Nature that many people miss. I am glad she did.

Ibuku terkejut ketika aku berteriak, " aku menemukan katak di atas kasurku". Dia mungkin dulu tahu bahwa pada akhirnya aku akan mengetahui, tetapi dia membiarkanku menemukan keajaiban alam yang banyak orang-orang rindukan. "Aku senang", kata ibu.

You see, a little earlier that spring, when I was 6 years old; I saw some little, black fish in a pond. Since I didn't have any pets I went home and asked my mother if I could have one.

Diawal musim semi ketika aku berumur 6 tahun, aku melihat beberapa ikan hitam kecil di sebuah kolam. Karena aku tidak memiliki hewan peliharaan, aku pulang ke rumah dan bertanya pada ibu apakah aku boleh memiliki hewan peliharaan.
