Fred was feeling sad one day. He began to weep. His mom saw him and said, “What’s wrong?”
Fred said he could hear a frog crying. He had found a dull green frog in the garden.
“That’s so sad,” said his mom, “but why are you crying?”
Fred said he was sad because the frog was sad. He wanted to help the frog, so he picked it up and brought it into the house. He found a warm box and put the frog inside. He gave it some lettuce and said he would take care of it. 
The frog stopped weeping, and soon it was hopping around and feeling happy. Fred was glad, and he smiled. His mom was very proud of him.
