La Grenouille qui se veut faire aussi grosse que le Bœuf

The Frog and the Ox is a famous fable by Jean de La Fontaine. It is the story of a frog who, out of envy and jealousy, will inflate himself to become as big as an ox. But by trying too hard to imitate, he will pay the price... This fable criticizes human vanity: it is better to stay as you are.
