The children are waiting! Please tell them the story about the bald frog with the wig:
There's nothing special about bald frogs. As amphibians, they have no fur. Sophie had a case of mammal-envy, and wanted fur. Living in a pond near a cat-loving librarian. Sophie was sick of the attention given to the furred ones. At the $ Tree, she got herself a wig. A bright red wig, which complemented her complexion! Having an appreciation for creative frogs, the librarian gave Sophie a pat.
