Three frong hopped into a kitchen when the lady of the house was away and saw a pot of creame.
"This looks interesting!" said two of the frogs.
"Be careful!" warned the third, But the two frogs hoppe onto the rim of the pot, peered in and fell into the cream.
"Help us, we are drowning!" they cried as the cream choked them.
"I can't help you," said the third frog.
"You have to help yourselves. Keep trying!"
"I can't do anything," said one of the sinking frog. "I give up." He sank into the cream and died.
The other frog in the cream also felt like giving up but he didn't. He went on struggling hard to free himslef from the thick cream.
"Don't lose heart, Keep struggling!" urgued the third frog.
So the tired frog continued to kick and splash in the cream untill he has churned the cream into butter! Then he climbed onto a big pat of butter as it rose to the surface of the pot, and jumped out!
"Well done, my brave friend," said the third frog. "You saved your own life. Things are never so bad that you can't do something about them!"
