Lion and mouse
One day a Lion was sleeping in the
meadow. When a little mouse came along and ran up and down over his face. This
awakened the lion and made very angry.
He put his claws over the mouse and said, "What do you mean by waking
me? You shall pay for this," and he opened his big mouth to swallow the
mouse.
"Oh,
do not kill me, Mr. Lion!" squealed the mouse. "I did not mean to
waken you. Do let me go and I
will never trouble you again."
"No,
I will not let you go," roared the lion.
"Please
do," cried the frightened mouse. "If you will let me go, I can do
something for you sometime."
This made the lion laugh. "You
do something for me ?" he said. "What a joke! Well, you are such a
little fellow that I will let you go this time, but never let me see you about
here again," and he lifted his claws.
As
the little mouse scampered off, he said, "Thank you Mr. lion, I shall not
forget your kindness."
Some time after this, the lion was
caught in a trap.
The lion roared so loud, that the
ground shook. The little mouse heard him.
"That
lion is in trouble," he said. "I will see what I can do to help
him," and he ran to the lion.
When
the mouse saw that the lion was tied with ropes, he said, "Cheer up, Mr.
Lion. Be quiet and I will set you free," and he began gnawing the ropes.
He worked long and hard, and at last
the lion was free.
“Thanks
be your help, I owe to you” said the lion, “No problem, Mr. Lion” said the
mause to the lion. Finally in the story is the Lion and the Mouse can be a good
friend.
