Beschreibung

“Wonder why it always rains on Saturdays?” muttered Alf Loring, laying his book face-down in his lap and staring discontentedly out of the window beside him.
It was a cheerless outlook. Through the blurred panes his gaze traversed the Yard, empty and bedraggled, to the back of Merle Hall and the gymnasium. Everywhere was rotting snow or pools of water, while from a low, leaden sky the rain fell straight and persistently. It had been raining just this way all day and half of last night, and to all appearances it intended to continue raining in the same manner for another twenty-four hours. Yesterday the Yard had been a foot deep in nice clean snow, the result of the blizzard that had swept over Wissining and New England in general two days before, and there had been more than one jolly battle royal out there. But now—Alf sighed; and, turning, looked aggrievedly at his roommate.

Once upon a time, in a lush marshland, a community of frogs found themselves in a state of discontent. Living without a leader, the frogs yearned for guidance and unity. They believed that having a king would bring order and direction to their amphibious society. 
One day, after much croaking and discussion, the frogs gathered at the edge of their pond to voice their desire for a king. They sent their most eloquent and persuasive frog, named Ferdinand, to speak on their behalf. 
Ferdinand hopped onto a lily pad and proclaimed to the universe, "We, the frogs, seek a king to lead us and bring order to our pond. We desire a ruler who can guide us through the challenges of marsh life." 
Their plea reached the wise old turtle, Terrence, who resided nearby. Intrigued by the frogs' request, Terrence decided to help them choose a leader wisely. 
Terrence called for a meeting, inviting various animals from the marshland. He proposed a series of challenges to determine who among the creatures would make the most suitable king for the frogs.
