Through a mysterious encounter with Masahiko Tanaka, a Japanese Master of the Empty Hand, Freddie decides karate is for him! And, thorugh this, he gains some essential human insights.
A snake, who acquired his skills from none other than Freddie's hero, Tanaka, becomes Freddie's Sensei, and so begins the stimulating and unlikely pairing of frog as student, with snake as teacher.
