Description
There is a French fable about a bullfrog who wishes to occupy a more important position in the world. He puffs himself up bigger and bigger until he explodes. This rotund Mayan toad seems to be tempting the same fate. Perhaps we should tell him that we like him just fine as he is. - (PF.0406)
