We have had recognition of the Easter Bunny for a long time. its about time someone gave credit to.........
The Valentine Frog.
From Amykb :
She asked me if she had to ask the Valentine's bunny for it. I told her no, the bunny comes at Easter, the Frog delivers stuff for Valentine's day.
Frog? she says.
Yep says I, don't you remember the story about the princess kissing the frog to turn him into a prince? Well, every year, the Valentine's Frog goes out into the world looking for a little girl to kiss him and turn him into a prince too, and he leaves chocolates and flowers and things like that to bribe them into thinking he is a prince.
Obviously a neglected part of our folklore.
i plan on giving the Valentine Frog equal billing with the easter Bunny.
help fight Frog discrimination! support publicity for the Valentine's Frog!
i was thinking for Bookcrossing that we should obviously start making a policy of releasing at least one copy of "the frog prince" (and possibly a note with this story) for Valentine's..
what do you think?
