  1. the verbal message for this advertisement is "will work for food" , what i understood from this verbal message is, even though u gave up, you will still find a way to survive. The non-verbal message is the expression of the frog which gave up because it could not find food. But the frog will find a way to find food. Verbal and Non-verbal messages are important in making a good advertisement.
