THE BRAVE GOAT - MORAL STORY

            In the outskirts of a village, there was a herd of goats. The mother goat had given birth to five new kids. A wolf that used to hunt in that part of the village had set his eyes on the kids. The mother goat was very careful in rearing her kids. She always advised her kids, "Be careful of the evil around you dear children. 




             There are many wild animals ready to kill you. Never graze alone in the woods. Stay close to mummy. When you get older, you can graze by yourself. " One fine morning, when the mother goat had gone out in search of food, the fox took its chance. He came to the kids and said in a very sweet voice, "Hello kids, I am your uncle. Come out with me.

             Let me show you some sweet herbs to eat." One kid replied, "How can you say you are our relative? You don't resemble us." The wolf smiled and said, "Look my child, I had left the herd a long time ago. My appearance has changed as a result of my forest life." However, the kids were suspicious. They were hesitant to come out of their house. "Please go away. Mummy is not at home. Come back when mummy is at home. We cannot entertain strangers when our parents aren't nearby," strongly said the kids. In the meantime, the mother goat returned and fought away the wolf. She was so happy that the kids had listened to her.

Pintu watched with wonder at the ease with which the lumberjacks split large logs. He was observing their work. When a lumberjack had inserted a wedge to split a log, the bell rang to indicate their lunchtime. The lumberjacks set aside their work and went away for their lunch.         Pintu ran to the log with the wedge stuck deep inside. His curiosity increased. He left his hand inside the split end and tried to pull the log apart. Nothing happened. So Pintu decided to pull out the wedge and see what happened. In his anxiety, Pintu did not notice that he was sitting across the log and that his tail was wagering in the split of the log.  The moment Pintu pulled out ...

THE WOLF AND THE RAT - MORAL STORY

The banyan tree was so big and strong that the rats we nicely sheltered.                Once, a cunning wolf happened to come that way. He saw the fleshy rats running here and there across the banyan tree. He thought to himself, "I would love to eat these rats. They are such easy prey." The wolf started limping as if his leg was hurt. Unknowing of the wolf's trick, the leader rat came to the rescue of the wolf. He asked the wolf, "Hello friend, what is your problem? Why are you limping?" The wolf replied in a weak voice, "I have hurt my leg so bad. I cannot hunt for food. If you can help me till I cure, I shall be very thankful to you." "Stay close, I shall send food for you every day through my friends," consoled the leader rat.             From then onwards, the leader ra...
