Freddie the frog lives in the country of Frogland. When he was growing up his father ran a tight ship.
He made Freddie practice jumping ten hours every day. Freddie was always tired so he could not pay
attention in school. Sometimes he couldn’t even tell what day it was.
“I’m telling you, I just want to chase flies with my friends,” Freddie said to his dad.
Then his dad said, “It’s my way or the highway.”
His dad always told him that he would be a jumping champion. Sure enough, when he was 18 years
old, he became the jumping champion of his country.
Now Freddie is 55 years old. He thinks about his dad a lot. Now he knows that there was method to
his dad’s madness.
