Milly on the Lily Pad

Poppy and Zander in Zen Forest - A podcast by Voiceworks

Milly the Frog has been sitting on her Lily Pad for an awfully long time.  In fact, neither Poppy nor Zander can remember a time when they saw Milly swim in the pond.  After some clumsy but well-intentioned questioning, Milly confesses to them both that she doesn’t get in the water because she doesn’t know how to dive … and the other frogs will make fun of her.  “Don’t worry Milly” Poppy reassured her, “Zander is a Goose – he’s the best diver in the forest, he’ll teach you!”  It was then they learned that Zander the Gander couldn’t swim.  Before long, the three friends hatch a plan to help each other out; Poppy teaches Milly to dive, Milly teaches Zander to swim.  What could possibly go wrong?  As it happens, quite a lot.
