Also called "The Princess and the Frog", this Grimm fairy tale cleverly illustrates the lesson of being true to one's promises. A princess loses her golden ball in a well and promises companionship to the frog willing to retrieve it for her. When it comes time to make good on her word, the princess is reluctant, to say the least. Honoring her promise, she is eventually rewarded with a happy ending.
