When Frog finds a teddy bear all alone in the forest, he takes him home.

Soon all Frog's friends adore little bear too and give him special treats - but even so, one day he doesn't want to play anymore, or say anything. He wants to go home. But that doesn't mean he can't come back again, does it? No, it doesn't!
