In ancient times, people's best wishes often became reality. In that fascinating time, there once was a king. The king had several daughters, all of whom were very beautiful; especially his youngest daughter, who was as beautiful as a fairy. Even the sun, which had seen a lot, was impressed by her beauty every time it shone on her face. I was amazed.

Near the king's palace, there is a large dark forest. Under an old lime tree in this forest, there is a deep pool. When the weather was hot, the little princess often came to this forest and sat by the cool pool. When she was bored sitting there, she took out a golden ball, threw it into the air, and then caught it with her hands. This became her favorite game.

Unfortunately, one time, the little princess stretched out her two little hands to catch the golden ball, but the golden ball did not fall into her hands. Instead, it fell to the ground and rolled into the puddle. The little princess stared at the golden ball closely, but the golden ball suddenly disappeared in the pool. Because the water in the pool was very deep and the bottom could not be seen, the little princess started to cry. Her crying became louder and louder, and she cried very sadly. While crying, the little princess suddenly heard someone saying loudly: "Oh, princess, what's wrong with you? Even the stone will feel distressed when you cry so loudly." After hearing this, the little princess looked around. , trying to figure out where the voice came from, only to find a frog sticking out his ugly fat head from the water.

"Ah! It turns out it's you, a good swimmer," the little princess said to the frog. "I'm crying here because my golden ball fell into the pool."

"Well, don't be sad, don't cry," replied the frog, "I have a way to help you. If I help you fish out your golden ball, what will you give me in return?"

"My dear frog, you can have anything you want," replied the little princess. "I can give you my clothes, my pearls and gems, and even this golden crown that I wear on my head."

After hearing this, the frog said to the little princess: "I don't want any of your clothes, your pearls, your gems, and your golden crown. However, if you like me, let me be your good friend." , let's play together, let me sit at the same table with you when we eat, eat from your little gold plate, drink from your little goblet, and let me sleep in your little bed at night; if you agree to all this If nothing else, I will dive into the pool and fish out your golden ball."

"Okay, great," the little princess said, "As long as you are willing to fish out my golden ball, I will agree to all your requests." Although the little princess said this, she thought in her heart: "This one Frogs are really stupid. They talk nonsense! He only deserves to squat in a pool and croak with other frogs. How can he be a good friend of humans?"

After the frog got the promise from the little princess, he plunged his head into the water and dived into the pool. After a while, the frog came out of the water with the golden ball in its mouth, and then spit the golden ball on the grass. The little princess couldn't be happier to see her beloved toy again. She picked up the golden ball and ran away.
