Remark:
One of the best illustrated of the booklets, I believe. There is no motivation here expressed behind the desire for a guardian. The frogs' response to the log is boredom. God finally appears close to the end, as a figure something like Buddha or an emperor, but clearly in a child's form. The stork gobbles up every single frog in sight.
