In a beautiful pond, there lived a group of little tadpoles. They had big heads, black - gray bodies, and long tails that they wagged as they swam merrily around. However, they had never seen their mother and didn't know what she looked like. So, they decided to look for their mother together.
As the little tadpoles were swimming, they saw the carp mother teaching the little carps how to catch food. They quickly swam over and asked the carp mother, "Aunt Carp, where is our mother?" The carp mother said with a smile, "Your mother has four legs and a wide mouth. Go ahead and look for her there!" The little tadpoles thanked the carp mother and swam forward again.
After swimming for a while, they saw a turtle swimming slowly in the water. The little tadpoles were very excited. They thought the turtle was their mother, so they quickly chased after it and called, "Mom, Mom!" The turtle said with a smile, "I'm not your mother. Your mother has two big eyes on her head and wears a green coat. Go ahead and look for her there!" The little tadpoles continued to swim forward.
Finally, the little tadpoles swam to a lotus leaf. They saw a big frog squatting on the lotus leaf. It was wearing a bright green coat, showing its snow - white belly, and had a pair of big bulging eyes. The little tadpoles thought, "This must be our mother." They swam over and shouted loudly, "Mom, Mom!" The frog mother looked down and said with a smile, "Good children, you've finally found your mother!" Since then, the little tadpoles and their mother have lived happily together in the pond.
