There was once a wide mouth frog. She had babies and she didn’t know what to feed them. She went to the cow, talking with her mouth real wide, she said, «COW, WHAT DO YOU FEED YOUR BABIES?» The Cow said, «I feed my babies milk.» She went on to the horse. Talking with her mouth real wide, she said, «HORSE, WHAT DO YOU FEED YOUR BABIES?» «I feed my babies hay.» said the horse. Finally she came to a snake. Talking with her mouth real wide, she said, «SNAKE, WHAT DO YOU FEED YOUR BABIES?» The snake said, «I feed my babies wide mouth frogs.» So the frog said, with her mouth really small, «Oh, is that so.»
