Frog went a-courtin'

A 400 year old Scottish ballad, which tells the tale of the courtship of Mr Frog and Miss Mouse. Sung by John Langstaff, the song is repeated so the audience can join in by following the verses as they appear on the screen. Music by Arthur Kleiner and illustrated by Feodor Rojankovsky.
