Dear Lily,
The author is Vsevolod Garshin, the title of the tale - "Lyagushka-Puteshestvennitsa", in English it is probable "Frog the Traveller" ;)
Best,
Tatiana Gornostay

Subject: [SEELANGS] Frog Tales
Dear Seelangers,
Could anyone remind me of the well known tale - who authored it, etc.?
It is about a frog that decided to fly south with the geese by holding
a twig in her mouth, carried by two helpful birds. Naturally she was
supposed to keep silent, but could not help herself and started
talking, and therefore fell down.
Who is the author? It it a folk tale?
Many thanks,
Lily Alexander
