Description

Cristina, an only child, heard the story of the princess who kissed a frog. Christina found a frog and kissed it, not wanting a prince, but a playmate. Her parents didn't have much time for her: her mother got fat and spent her time knitting, and her father was busy building a highchair and crib. Her grandmother stayed with her while her parents were away. They returned with a baby girl who was too little to be a playmate. Cristina was disappointed at the frog's mistake, and she hunted for another frog to kiss. Meanwhile, her little sister got bigger and became her playmate.
