    Once upon a time, in a quiet little pond, lived a small frog with a big dream. He wished to be bigger than anything else in the world. The other animals would often laugh at his dream, but he didn't let it deter him.

    One day, Frog discovered a peculiar ability; he could inflate himself. He puffed up his cheeks, and his body followed, expanding like a balloon. The other animals were astonished by his new skill.

    Frog began to inflate himself daily, and with each passing day, he grew larger. Within a few days, he had become bigger than the largest animal in the pond, the Ox.

    The Ox couldn't believe his eyes as Frog continued to inflate, growing bigger and bigger. Soon, he was larger than the pond itself, causing the other animals to scramble for safety.
