THE DEVOED MOTHER - MORAL STORY

    It was a serene lake. There were many fowls living in the banks and the trees surrounding the lake. A family of ducks was also living there. 




             The mother lake was guiding her chicks to learn swimming and searching for food. Life was very happy for the family. The duck and her chicks were swimming all over the lake and roaming around the banks. They were enjoying life to the full extent. One day, the duck saw a cunning fox hunting in the area. The duck immediately came and warned the chicks, "Look my children, there is a fox in the area. Be careful when you come out of the lake. He might harm you." "Yes mother," the chicks replied in unison. The duck always kept an eye on her chicks to safeguard them from the dangerous fox.





          The next day, when the duck went out she saw the fox hiding very near to her chicks. She was alarmed. She shouted in a loud voice, "Run to the water children. The fox is hiding near you," and ran towards the fox. The fox noted the duck coming in his direction and was very happy that he was going to get a nice meal. He waited for the duck to come closer.

         The duck came halfway, turned around to see her chicks flutter safely into the water. She acted as if she was wounded. She started to limp away. The fox thought it was the ripe time to attack the duck. He leapt at the duck. The duck waited till the last moment. Gaining all her strength, she flapped her wings and flew away just as the fox was about to grip her. Now, the duck and her chicks were safely swimming in the water while the fox had to search for food elsewhere.

              Pintu was a mischievous monkey. He was always very playful. He was also shooting troubles. Once, the pack of monkeys in which Pintu was a member wandered into a nearby village.  A group of lumberjacks were cutting big pieces of wood from the logs. 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 LIONS ATTENDANTS

         There was an old lion in a forest. He was so old that he could no longer hunt effectively. He could not get food by himself, He had to eat only the leftovers of the kills made by other animals. Sometimes he had to stay hungry for days together if he could not find such leftover food.  A jackal and a crow were true followers of the lion. They were happy to stay with the lion and eat what the lion gave them. They too were very sad to see their king's pathetic state. "We have to do something to make our king really happy," said the jackal to the crow. The crow replied, "Yes, my friend. We have to make our king happy." At that time they happened to come across a sick camel. The camel was counting his days. He staggered in the direction of the jackal and the crow. "What are you discussing folks?" asked the camel. The wise jackal said, "Our king lion is too old to hunt anymore. So, we were talking about who would sacrifice their life for the ki...
