Notes

Once upon a time in a cozy, leafy forest, there lived a mischievous little frog named Freddy. Freddy loved to play hide-and-seek with his friends, but he was the ultimate hide-and-seek champion. His green skin made him blend in perfectly with the lily pads, and his croak sounded like a secret giggle. Every time his friends shouted, "Frog, where are you?" Freddy would leap out with a cheerful ribbit, surprising everyone. He was the forest's hide-and-seek superstar, and his games filled the forest with laughter and joy.
