Paradigm for our times

This paradigm for our times details the life of a frog called Fenton who is given a pair of rose tinted spectacles by a catfish and then charges headlong into a life of virtual business. Unfortunately a passing cod knocks them off one day and Fenton's business world is revealed to be as solid as the emperor's new clothes. Inevitably Fenton is forced to see reality and has no choice but to leap off a cliff.
