• They never suspected he was a humbug, but listened to his words with great respect and did just what he advised them to do Now, when Cayke the Cookie Cook raised such an outcry over the theft of her diamond-studded dishpan, the first thought of the people was to take her to the Frogman and inform him of the loss, thinking that of course he could tell her where to find it He listened to the story with his big eyes wide open behind his spectacles, and said in his deep, croaking voice If the dishpan is stolen, somebody must have taken it But who?" —  The Lost Princess of Oz
• They all advised her to do as the Frogman had told her to, so she posted the sign on her door and waited patiently for someone to return the dishpan--which no one ever did Again she went, accompanied by a group of her neighbors, to the Frogman, who by this time had given the matter considerable thought. —  The Lost Princess of Oz
• Said he to Cayke I am now convinced that no Yip has taken your dishpan, and, since it is gone from the Yip Country, I suspect that some stranger came from the world down below us, in the darkness of night when all of us were asleep, and took away your treasure. —  The Lost Princess of Oz
• If your dishpan is anywhere in the world I am sure to find it If you do not, my heart will be broken," declared the Cookie Cook in a sorrowful voice For a while the Frogman walked on in silence. —  The Lost Princess of Oz
• Yet, the very morning after my dishpan was stolen, I tried to make a batch of cookies and they burned up in the oven! —  The Lost Princess of Oz
