I like the Frog Prince

I liked this version of the Frog Prince. The standard line is that the Princess agrees to take a less than wonderful partner in exchange for an act which she is not allowed to do (retrieve the golden ball). Then the price must be paid. All standard stuff. HOWEVER, the princess has a bit too much when required to share her bed with this loathsome item. At that point, she slams the frog against the wall and he is magically transformed into a more pleasant alternative. Perhaps girl children should learn that it is necessary to stand up and smack the fellow to get him to step into line. I like this version of the story very much.
