Ella felt like she was getting the hang of this now and she wanted to keep her momentum going. She looked at lilypad number 23, her next target. She took a deep breath and jumped, landing lightly on the lilypad. No slipping this time. Thank Merlin! Next she was headed for number 27 and then on to number 26. She jumped quickly from pad to pad, feeling that she was finally getting close to her final destination. I don't know how frogs do this all the time! It sure is tiring!
