The story itself centers around a young princess who encounters a frog sitting on a water lily while searching for a ball she lost while playing outside of the castle she lives in. Upon realizing that she in fact lost her ball after it sank into the pond where the frog was sitting she becomes upset, assuming that the water had taken her ball from her for good.

With such a proposal in hand, perhaps there is more to this frog than meets the eye.
