This was suggested by Rayin, one of my newest reviewers (so of course I had to try it!).
However, I had to add one of my own ideas to your story. Can you guess what I did?
And yes, Rayin, Grim's Kinda Tale Basically is a YYH version of Tales of the Brothers Grim. Nifty, huh?
Disclaimer: I don't own YYH, the Tales of the Brothers Grim, or Dr. Seuss.
Keiko the Frog Prince
Once upon a time there was a boy named Yuske, who didn't like kissing frogs.
This made it a bit complicated when one day, he actually came across a talking frog.
"I beg your pardon," the frog said very politely. "But would you mind terribly kissing me?"
Yusuke took a step back, and stared at the frog. She wasn't an ugly frog, but really. Kiss her?
"No, sorry." Walking past her, Yusuke was a bit alarmed to find her following him around.
"Would you kiss me in a box? Would you kiss me with a fox?" The frog persisted.
"I would not kiss you in a box, and I would not kiss you with a fox," Yusuke snapped.
"Would you kiss me on a train? Would you kiss me in the rain?"
"I would not kiss you on a train, and I certainly wouldn't kiss you in the rain." Stopping, Yusuke glared down at the frog.
"What's your name?" he asked the frog.
"Keiko."
"Well, Keiko, I'm not going to kiss you. Got that?"
Keiko, who obviously didn't know when to give up, went on. "Would you kiss me here..." she hopped sideways a few yards "...or there? Would you kiss me anywhere?"
"I would not kiss you here or there. I will not kiss you anywhere!"
Keiko looked up at him with pleading froggy eyes. "Please?"
So Yusuke caved. "Fine."
Bending over, he kissed her.
And she turned into a girl.
"Man," he looked her up and down. "We'd have saved a lot of time if you just told me that was going to happen."
So she slapped him.
But then she kissed him.
The End
Sorry if you guys don't like the Yusuke/Keiko pairing, but I thought they were the best characters for this story.
Okay, let's be honest: How many of you guys still like Green Eggs and Ham? Hmmm?
Dr. Seuss rocks, doesn't he?
