The Princess and The Frog Read-aloud Bedtime Story for Kids!

Little Star Club Disney The Princess and the Frog Adapted by Victoria Saxon Illustrated by Tara Nicole Whittaker When Tiana was a little girl, she loved to cook. Food brings people together, Tiana's daddy always said. Tiana had a big dream. She wanted to own a restaurant one day. It would have music and good food. And it would bring people together, just as daddy had said. Tiana grew up and worked hard. When she had saved enough money, she tried to buy a place to have her own restaurant. The two salespeople promised to sell her an old sugar mill. Tiana went to her friend Charlotte's costume party. There the salespeople broke their promise. Tiana was so upset that she fell and ruined her costume. Her dreams of opening a restaurant were gone. Charlotte gave Tiana a pretty princess costume. But Tiana was still sad. She saw the evening star in the sky and made a wish for her restaurant. But instead of her restaurant, a frog appeared and spoke to her. The frog said he was really a prince named Naveen. A bad magic man had changed him into a frog. Would Tiana kiss him if he gave her the restaurant? No. Well, maybe one tiny kiss. Smooch. The frog did not turn into a prince. But Tiana turned into a frog. The frogs fell off the balcony. They bounced on some drums. They flew away. The two frogs ended up in the bayou. It was scary there. A big bird wanted to eat them. Alligators wanted to eat them. Everything wanted to eat them. Tiana and Naveen escaped. Tiana worked while Naveen played. Soon they met an alligator named Louie. Louie loved jazz, just like Naveen. Louis and Naveen jammed while Tiana planned. Soon the frogs were hungry. They tangled up their tongues trying to catch a fly. A firefly untangled them. His name was Ray and his family lit a path through the bayou. The path led to Mama Odie. She told the frogs to find out what they needed, not just what they wanted. Then Mama Odie told Naveen he had to kiss Tiana's friend Charlotte, who was Mardi Gras princess for the night. Kissing a princess would make both frogs human again. But the bad magic man tried to stop Naveen. Uh-oh. The chase was on. Would the frog kiss the princess in time? No. Time was up. Naveen and Tiana remained frogs. But they realized that they were in love. That was all they really needed. The two frogs got married. Now Tiana was a princess. That meant Naveen had finally kissed a princess. The magic worked. Both frogs became human again. Tiana and Naveen worked hard together to fix up her restaurant. It was the best restaurant ever. At last Tiana had exactly what she wanted. And exactly what she needed. Good food and good times with family and friends.
