Read:
A large bull strolled along the bank of a stream.
The frog was very envious of its size and strength.
Then it began to swell, making an enormous effort, trying to get as big as the bull.
He asked his brook mates if he was the size of the bull. They said no.
The frog swelled and swelled again. Still it didn't reach the size of the bull.
For the third time he tried to swell; and he did it so hard that he exploded out of jealousy.
