Overview:

Aesop recounts the tale of the Frogs who wish for a king and are granted a beaver as their ruler. Initially excited, the Frogs soon find the beaver to be a rather unresponsive and lazy leader.

The fable delivers a playful lesson about leadership and the importance of being careful what you wish for.
