Welcome to the world of Bartholomew Hoppinlilypond, the frog. Bartholomew is a proud, handsome and yet prone to fits of terrible temper frog.

He is often defeated, but he is not discouraged and always comes back with a bang, ever ready to have a go at something new, convinced that this time he will be a wonderful winner.

But alas, he is constantly frazzled and frizzled, despairing, lowdown, depressed, defeated, wailing, crying and hopeless, and yet, here he comes again in a new story, full of beans, smiling, optimistic, bright-eyed, gleefully rubbing his hands together as he prepares to start out on his latest adventure.

Will he be a winner this time?
