It is an important and popular fact that things are not always what they seem.
For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much – the wheel, New York, wars, and so on – whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time.
But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man – for precisely the same reasons.

Frog and Toad are individual characters with different points-of-view and reactions to situations. While Frog tends to be more open, friendly, and relaxed, Toad can be more serious and uptight.
