In this fresh take on the classic fairy tale of “The Frog Prince”, the “princess” is Arlyn, a kid who loses a baseball in a murky pond and grudgingly agrees to be friends with Bellamy, the frog who fishes it out. As soon as Arlyn gets the ball back, Arlyn runs away laughing, never intending to keep any friendship promises. Bellamy appears unexpectedly to join Arlyn’s family for dinner – where Arlyn’s parents insist on treating their weird guest with gracious hospitality. Through dinner, a baseball game, and a slumber party, the kid and the frog finally, really do become best friends! Families love this heartwarming tale of acceptance and friendship.
