This is a fractured fairy tale done as a bedtime story.
The Prince and the Frog
By
Y Lee Coyote <YLeeCoyote@juno.com>
Once upon a time there was a prince.
Yes, of course, he was handsome and brave like in every fairy tale. Unfortunately, this prince was not very happy at the moment for he was squatting in the pond trying to cool his very hot and sore bottom rather than thinking about wonderful and exciting adventures. He was in this situation for he had displeased his mother, the Queen, and before you could have said "Jack be nibble, Jack be quick." he had been pulled over the royal lap with his britches and pants down being spanked just like any other naughty boy is spanked.
Yes, just like you. And she spanked him because they were in the summer cottage in woods and not surround by the Court and a zillion servants. So, now, he was trying to cool his bottom in the pond and regain his dignity for he felt he was far to old to be spanked – especially on his bare bottom with his pants down about his ankles.
He was being watched by a medium size bullfrog. He reached out to it and to his surprise it jumped onto his hand saying: "Croak, croak, croak." in a deep baritone, cocked his head and looked at him.
"I wonder if I kiss you if you will turn into a handsome and brave prince like in the fairy tails. Or maybe that only happens to princesses." the prince said out loud.
"Croak, croak, croak."
With that encouragement, the prince brought the frog to his lips. He was a real boy and was not afraid of getting warts or any girly stuff like that. Actually the hardest part was to kiss it for he hadn't quite gotten to like doing that yet.
Don't make a face; when you get older you get to like it also. There was a flash and the prince was really surprised that there really was some sort of an enchantment on the frog. But before he could figure it out, he suddenly realized that he was swimming. He made his way to a rock and climbed onto it. The frog was climbing up on the other side.
"Croak, croak, croak." went the deep baritone.
And to his amazement he understood the inflections and responded: "Croak, croak, croak." in a tenor.
That's right – and they lived happily ever after. Now, be a good boy and go to sleep now.
The End

A whimsical little story and quite different. On the other hand, it did not really have that much appeal to me. But...for originality, I give it some points.

This story happens to fall within what I would call my field of expertise. The story is well written and is a good story. It's very cute. However, my largest criticism of this story is that it totally fails to discuss spanking in any significant way. Seeing as this story contest is being hosted by a spanking newsgroup I would have liked to seen a significant discussion of this boys actual spanking. It just wasn't there. If that element had been there I could very easily have given this story a high rating but since it is not there I must give it a lower rating.

This story has a nice twist on a whole class of fairy tales, indeed a fairy-tale stereotype.
It is also nicely written. However the spanking mention is so brief, it feels like it is tossed in to make the story qualify for posting in a spanking newsgroup. A story doesn't need to have lots of (or indeed any) on-stage spanking scenes, but explicitly or implicitly spanking or related issues should be a major point in the story, if not its heart, IMO. If we had heard more about the prince's spanking, or about frog-spanking after his big change that might have worked better.
