Synopsis

In this early animation produced by the Wan Brothers, a teacher played by a real person tells the story of "Mouse and Frog" to the children. The story itself is animated: Vole invited his friend Frog to watch an acrobatics show and Frog invited Vole to his pond in return. As Vole could not swim, Frog tied a rope around their feet to ensure safety. Once they arrived at the pond, Frog was having a good time, but Vole, who had no knowledge of swimming, fainted underwater and floated to the surface. An eagle spotted the fainted mouse tied to the frog, took them both and feasted on the pair.
