Grog got to do with my relatives down

Nothing. Nothing at ALL" replied
Scrapper. "Only have seen a Tree

Grandfather Frog. He was consider

has toes just like yours

hastened to beg pardon of Scrapper,
"Of course, don't really mean that"
said he. IF you say 1t is so. it must
be so. But didn't suppose there was
any Tree Toad bigger than myself. Is
he a real, honest-to-goodness Toad?"
No more than you are" replied
Scrapper. You know well enough that
you are not Toad. but a Frog. 1t is
the same way with your big cousin
down in the Tropics. He is a Tree
Frog. but folks will call him Tree Toad :"
