Frog is happy and he wants to share his happiness with everyone else but when he hops off his lily pad to find someone to share it with no one is interested. The birds ignore him, so do the bees and the rabbits, and fox tries to eat him. So feeling all sad he hops onto a floating cloud. Darkness falls and lightning strikes and splash he ends up back on his lily pad and there on his lily pad sits another frog. Both of them are very hoppy or maybe that’s happy.
