🐸 Story 1: Tiddalik the Frog

The first story in the collection is Tiddalik the Frog, one of the most famous Aboriginal Dreamtime tales. Set in a time when the world was still being shaped, this story tells how a giant frog named Tiddalik drank all the water in the land, leaving rivers dry and animals in danger.

Through clever thinking and laughter, the animals work together to restore balance to nature. Retold in simple, engaging language, this story teaches children:

• The harm caused by greed
• The importance of sharing and balance
• Respect for nature and all living things
• How cleverness and cooperation can solve problems

The story is playful, meaningful, and easy to understand, making it perfect for young readers and comforting for bedtime reading.
