Description:Translation (Htoi San) Once upon a time, a frog family lived on a farm. A mother frog and tadpoles stayed on the farm. One day, the mother frog left their home to search for food to feed her children. On her way, she met with a buffalo. The buffalo asked her, "What are you doing here?" Then she replied, "I am getting food for my children as I look after them." The buffalo continued asking, "Where do you keep your children?" However, the mother frog did not answer. The next day, the mother frog came out again to find food. The buffalo watched her way out. Then he went to the place where the froglets were. That buffalo went there again and again. Finally, he found a place where the mother frog hid her children, and there were many straws. The tadpoles were shocked when they saw the buffalo. They thought when they saw it, "The whole sky drops and steps on them." They were so frightened, and they told their mother when she came back, "Mommy, a giant person who is huge, came to us today." The mother asked, "How big was it?" She enlarged her abdomen, then asked, "This much?" When the mother asked, "This much," her children answered, "No, not that much. It was bigger." Then the mother asked again, "How much bigger was it?" and "Was it this much?" The mother frog swelled her belly larger. The froglets answered, "Oh no! It was larger than that." When the tadpoles answered like that, their mother enlarged her belly more and more. Even though the mother made her belly bigger, her children answered, "No! It is not." At last, the mother frog burst her belly. Due to the bursting of the belly, the mother frog died. The children were so sad, and they regretted it. "Oh my! We should say 'Yes' when our mother asked, 'This much.' We killed our mother." They all were so sorrowful, and they lived only by themselves.
