Abstrakt: This article, titled "King of the frogs," is a retelling of one of Aesop's Fables. The story revolves around the frogs who, unhappy with not having a ruler, ask Jupiter for a king. Jupiter responds by throwing a log into the lake, scaring the frogs initially but eventually leading them to climb and sit on the log. Unsatisfied with the log as their ruler, the frogs request a new king twice, first an eel and then a heron. However, the heron ends up preying on the frogs, resulting in their demise. The fable serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of discontentment and the dangers of seeking change without considering the potential outcomes. [Extracted from the article]
