What is Frog Is Frightened about?

Frog, Duck and Pig insist that ghosts do not exist. But when strange noises echo through the darkness, they begin to wonder if something spooky is nearby. Frightened, the three friends squeeze together in Pig’s bed and try to stay brave. The next morning, Hare searches everywhere for Frog and cannot understand why nobody answers. He gets quite a shock when he discovers where the friends are—and what they have been doing all night.
