**Please use your own judgement before sharing these stories with children. Although I do my best to keep the language friendly, the content may not be everyone's cup of tea.

Summary

A witch turns a beautiful girl called Parsley into a toad and sends her away after three princes fight over her.

When the princes return home, their father announces that he will assign them three tasks to determine which one of them will be his heir.

The youngest succeeds at each task with the help of a toad, which he calls Puddocky.

When the third task demands the princes bring home the most beautiful bride they can find, Puddocky returns to human form and reveals that she is Parsely.

The youngest prince is appointed successor, and he and Parsley reigned for a long and happy time.
