In a sunny, cheerful pond, where lilies bloom bright,
Lived Freddy the Frog, who jumped with delight.
With a croak and a leap, he would hop all around,
In his watery home, the happiest frog in town!

Page 2:
Now, up in the sky, soaring high with a grin,
Was Paul the Pelican, with feathers so thin.
He’d glide on the breeze, with his big, flappy wings,
And dive for his dinner, oh, the joy that it brings!

Page 3:
One sunny morning, while Freddy was playing,
He saw Paul the Pelican, soaring and swaying.
“Hey, Paul!” Freddy called, with a wave of his hand,
“Come splash in the pond! It’s the best in the land!”

Page 4:
Paul swooped down low, with a curious stare,
“I’ve never been swimming! Is it fun? Is it fair?”
Freddy just chuckled, “Oh, you’ll see, my friend!
With splashes and laughter, the fun won’t end!”

Page 5:
So Freddy led Paul to the pond’s shimmering edge,
Where the water sparkled like a bright, shiny hedge.
“Jump in!” Freddy shouted, “The water feels great!”
But Paul wobbled nervously, “I think I’ll just wait.”

Page 6:
“Don’t worry!” said Freddy, “Just follow my lead.
I’ll show you the joy of this splashing, indeed!”
With a hop and a leap, Freddy dove right in,
Creating big ripples and splashes with a grin.

Page 7:
Paul watched in amazement as Freddy danced and spun,
The way he twirled and swirled, oh, it looked like such fun!
With a deep, brave breath, Paul took a big leap,
And into the water, he went with a splash, oh so deep!

Page 8:
Bubbles flew up as Paul flapped and floundered,
He swam with surprise, while Freddy just bounded.
“Look at you, Paul! You’re doing just fine!
Together we’ll splash, like the sun, we will shine!”

Page 9:
They splashed and they played, in the warm, sunny glow,
Freddy and Paul, putting on quite the show!
They laughed and they twirled, and they jumped with glee,
In their wonderful pond, so happy and free.

Page 10:
But then came a storm, with clouds dark and gray,
The wind howled loudly, and the skies turned away.
“Freddy, I’m scared!” cried Paul with a fright,
“Will we be okay? Will we be alright?”

Page 11:
“We’ll face it together!” Freddy croaked with a cheer,
“Just hold on to me, my friend, have no fear!
Let’s find a safe spot where we can stay dry,
And watch the rain dance as it falls from the sky!”

Page 12:
So they huddled beneath a big leafy tree,
While the rain pitter-pattered, wild and free.
Freddy told stories of adventures they’d share,
And Paul felt much better, forgetting his scare.

Page 13:
When the storm finally passed, and the sun came to play,
Freddy and Paul jumped out, ready for the day!
“Let’s dive back in!” Paul squealed with delight,
“I love our adventures, they feel just so right!”

Page 14:
From that day on, they were the best of pals,
Freddy the Frog and Paul the Pelican with a smile.
Together they’d splash, swim, and explore,
Creating new memories, and always wanting more.

Page 15:
So if you ever see a frog and a bird,
Splashing in a pond, chirping without word,
Remember the friendship that grew in the sun,
Of Freddy and Paul, two pals having fun!
