Tiddalick wanted to be the biggest frog in all the land. One very hot day Tiddalick was very thirsty
so he began to drink and drink and drink until the whole billabong was all dried up. When all the
other animals came to the billabong to drink there was no water. They knew it was the greedy frog
who drank all the water. They were very angry at him. (Billabong= lake)
If the animals wanted to get all the water out of Tiddalick and back into the billabong they would
have to make Tiddalick laugh until all the water came out. The echidna tried to make him laugh by rolling down the hill into
the dried up billabong but Tiddalick didn't laugh. Kookaburra was perched high in the gum tree, he pretended to fall out but
Tiddalick still didn't laugh! Wombat started dancing but Tiddalick still didn't laugh! None of the animals knew what to and
they were still very thirsty.
When the snake was dancing he tied himself into a big knot, Tiddalick could not stop laughing at the snake. He laughed so
much that all the water came out and ran back into the billabong. From that day on Tiddalick was never greedy and only
drank what he needed.
