Child's Fable: The frog that wanted to swell like an ox

A frog that was in a pond saw one day approaching an ox to drink a little water, and he called attention to the large size of the animal. The frog was very small, no bigger than a lemon, and seeing the corpulent ox was filled with envy and decided to swell up to match it in size.

The frog while it was swollen asked his companions:

- I swelled enough to equal it? Am I already as big as him?

- No

- And now? Tam - Neither

- I already made it!

- You're still far away!

And the poor frog swelled up so much, it burst.
