Sirius is one of the closest stars to Earth, being about 8.3 light years away. It is one of the brightest stars in Earth’s sky. It has been nicknamed the Dog Star because it is in the constellation Canis Major. There is a second, much smaller, star in the Sirius system known as Sirius B. Sirius B is known as the Frog Star because it is planet Amphibia’s sun.

Five thousand years ago, visitors from Amphibia came to Earth for the first time in three- legged space ships called Nommo. They landed in Africa and made friends with the frogs, toads, salamanders and reptiles there. They also met humans for the first time, specifically the Dogon tribe of West Africa. Everyone had a wonderful, happy time. The Earth was nice and clean then. There was almost no pollution in the water or the air.

About forty or fifty years ago the frogs on Earth started to die because of increasing pollution caused by humans. They sent out a cry for help to their space brothers and sisters on Amphibia. The inhabitants of Amphibia received the message and immediately began preparing to send Infinity Frog to Earth to help save the frogs.
