    Mark Twain’s "The Jumping Frog", also know as The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County is one of America’s most beloved humorous short stories—a tale brimming with wit, mischief, and the charm of small-town life. When a visiting stranger hears the outlandish story of a gambler and his extraordinary frog, “Dan’l Webster,” he’s drawn into a web of good-natured trickery and tall-tale tradition. Twain’s keen ear for dialect and his playful satire of human gullibility make this story a timeless piece of frontier folklore. 
    Narrated with warmth and personality by Mike Polischuk, this classic captures the lively spirit of 19th-century America and the storytelling genius that made Mark Twain a national treasure.
