A FROG HE WOULD
A jaunty traditional nursery rhyme follows an adventurous frog who sets out in his opera hat to court the charming Miss Mousey. Along the way, he enlists a rat as a companion and arrives at Mousey’s Hall, where a visit soon turns into an evening of beer, singing, and cheerful conversation.

Perfect for listeners who enjoy classic folk rhymes, comic storytelling, and memorable verses that invite a chorus of “Heigho!
