The Dove and The Wicked Boy

Once there was a bee lived in a tree. It fell into a stream. He was struggling to get out of the water. His wings got wet and he could not fly.

A dove was perched on a nearby tree. She saw the struggling bee. She plucked a leaf. She held the leaf in her beak and flew up to the bee. She scoped the bee with the leaf and dropped him out on the shore. After sometime the bee flew away.

A few days later, the dove was perched on the same tree and sleeping. A boy was aiming his sling at her. The bee saw the boy. And when the boy was about to shoot, he bit the boy’s hand. The boy cried with pain. The dove woke up and flew away.

The Lion and The Bull

 It was a hot day. A bull was sound asleep under a shady tree. The bull was snoring loudly. This loud noise evoked the curiosity of a small mouse passing that away.

The mouse climbed up to the nose of the bull. As the bull snored, the mouse bit his nose madly for fun’s snake. But the bull woke up and snorted “Who bit me and woke me up?” The little mouse replied “Sorry Mr.Bull! I bit you playfully, but I did not expect to wake you up”.

The bull got wild. He started to chase the small mouse. The mouse began to run for his life. At last he found a small hole in a stone wall. He ran into the hole and waited to see what the bull is going to do.

The bull came dashing up to the wall. He was not able to catch the mouse. He roared “You silly creature! I’II teach you a lesson” and dashed against the wall. The wall was too strong for the bull.

The bull heard the mouse saying “Why are you breaking your heard for so small a thing?” He left the place immediately.

Lion and The Rabbit Story Summery

Once upon a time there lived a lion in the forest. It was a greedy lion and started killing animals in the forest indiscriminately. Seeing this, all the animals gathered and decided to approach the lion with the offer of one animal eaten by the lion every day.

It took its own sweet time to go to the Lion. The Lion was getting impatient on not seeing any animal come by and swore to kill all animals the next day.

The rabbit then strode along to the Lion by sunset. The Lion was angry at him. The rabbit told the Lion that it was not his fault. He told that there was another lion who wants to kill him. Somehow he escaped to reach safely, the rabbit said.

He said that the other Lion was challenging the supremacy of his Lordship the Lion.The Lion was naturally very enraged and asked to be taken to the location of the other Lion.

The wise rabbit agreed and led the Lion towards a deep well filled with water. Then he showed the Lion his reflection in the water of the well. The Lion was furious and started growling and naturally its image in the water, the other Lion, was also equally angry.

Then the Lion jumped into the water at the other Lion to attack it, and so lost its life in the well. Thus the wise rabbit saved the forest and its inhabitants from the proud Lion.

Lion and The Little Mouse Story

Once upon a time there lived a lion in a forest. One day morning the lion lay asleep in the shade of a oak tree. A little mouse came upon him unexpectedly, and in her fright and haste to get away, ran across the lion's nose.  Woken from his nap, the lion laid his huge paw angrily on the tiny creature to kill her.

"Spare me!" begged the poor mouse. "Please let me go and some day I will surely repay you." The lion was so amused at the idea of the little mouse being able to help the King of Beasts, that he lifted up his paw and let her go.

Some weeks later, the lion was caught in a net.  The hunters, who desired to carry the lion alive to their King, tied him to a tree while they went in search of a wagon to carry him.

Just then the little mouse happened to pass by, and seeing the lion's sad plight, went up to him and soon gnawed away the ropes of the net, freeing the lion.

"You have helped me and now I have returned the favor.  Was I not right - even a mouse can help a lion!" said the little mouse.

Moral: Don't forget:  even the smallest friend is worthwhile!
