The Frog Prince is a fairy tale, best known through the Brothers Grimm's written version. The 2009 animated film, The Princess and the Frog is loosely based on this story. In the tale, a spoiled princess reluctantly befriends the Frog Prince (meeting him after dropping a gold ball into a pond), who magically transforms into a handsome prince. Although in modern versions the transformation is invariably triggered by the princess kissing the frog, in the original Grimm version of the story is a a little bit different. In addition, following this classic tale, you have The Princess and the Pea. This short story by Hans-Christian Andersen tells the story of a prince who wants to marry a princess, but is having difficulty finding a suitable wife. Something is always wrong with those he meets, and he cannot be certain they are real princesses. One stormy night a young woman drenched with rain seeks shelter in the prince's castle. She claims to be a princess. But how can the prince ascertain she really is? This classic tale tells the story of how he put her to the test.

Excerpt from The Frog PrinceBe quiet, and do not cry, answered the Frog; I can give thee good advice. But what wilt thou give me if I fetch thy plaything up again P What will you have, dear Frog? Said she. My dresses, my pearls and jewels, or the golden crown which I wear?The Frog answered, Dresses, or jewels, or golden crowns, are not for me; but if thou wilt love me, and let me be thy com panion and playfellow, and sit at thy table, and eat from thy little golden plate, and drink out of thy cup, and sleep in thy little bed, - if thou wilt promise me all these, then will I dive down and fetch up thy golden ball.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
