Mouse Deer and Crocodile
One day, Mouse Deer went down to the river to take a drink. But he knew that the crocodile might be waiting underwater to eat him, so he said out loud. “I wonder if the water’s warm. I’ll put in my leg and find out.” Of course Mouse Deer didn’t put in his leg. He picked up a stick instead and put one end into the water. Chomp…! Crocodile grabbed the stick and pulled it underwater. Mouse Deer laughed. “Ha… ha…ha… Stupid crocodile! Cant you tell the difference between a stick and a leg?” Then Mouse Deer ran off to drink somewhere else.
In the next day, Mouse Deer wanted to cross the river. He wanted to eat the fruits on the other side of the river. He saw a floating log in the river. He knew that Crocodile looked like a log when he floated. Mouse Deer didn’t want to be eaten by Crocodile when he crosses the river. He had an idea. He called out loud, “Crocodile!” Crocodile rose from the water, “Hello, Mouse Deer. Have you come to be my lunch?” Mouse Deer smiled. “Sorry, not today, Crocodile. I have orders from the King. He wants to invite all the crocodiles in this river to a party. He wants me to count all the crocodiles so he could prepare enough meal for you.”
“Really…? Tell us what to do,” said Crocodile. “You must line up from this side of the river to the other side,” said Mouse Deer. Crocodile then got all his friends and family. They lined up across the river. Mouse Deer then jumped onto Crocodile’s back. “One,” he counted. He jumped onto the next crocodile, “Two.” And the next crocodile, “Three.” Mouse Deer kept jumping until he arrived on the other side of the river. “How many are there?” asked Crocodile. “Just enough,” said Mouse Deer. He laughed as he ran to the forest.***




This time a short tale, is from Aesop fabels, about the ant and the dove.

One day, an ant who was walking around looking for food in the river. Š…eperti usual he walked with a cheerful and as careless of a sudden he fell into the river.

River currents carry her away, drowned ants arose and fatigue trying to pull over but to no avail. The chance of a dove perched on a tree branch across the river to see the ants that nearly drowned and felt pity.

These pigeons pluck the leaves and drop it near the ants. Ants crawled up onto the leaves and eventually managed to save himself with the help of these leaves, landed on the riverbank.

Not long after, the ant saw a bird hunter sneaking trying to approach the pigeons that have been helped earlier. Ant to realize the danger that overshadows the good pigeons, immediately ran up to the hunter, and biting the feet of the hunter.

The hunter was in pain and surprise, waving twigs that had to be used to catch birds. Pigeons bird hunters aware of the busy wagging twigs pain. Eventually the bird flew to rescue him.
