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.

He was friendly with all of them.               Once, Bunny heard a pack of hunting dogs in the forest. He was afraid that they would catch him. He ran to a deer he thought was his close friend and said, "Dear brother, I hear a pack of hunting dogs in the forest nearby. Please save me. You have such sharp antlers. You can thrash them. Please help me, friend !" The coolly replied, "I am sorry, Bunny.        I am too busy to help you out. Go and find someone else for your help." Bunny ran to many of his friends - the bear, the monkey, the zebra, and even the panther. They all gave the same reply. Finally, the tired Bunny met a mouse and told his pathetic state. The mouse replied, "Why are you panicking. Just get into your borough and stay inside till the pack leaves this area. You shall be safe." Bunny we...

THE SNAKE AND THE GREEN FROG - MORAL STORY

          It had just rained and the forest was nourishing with water everywhere. There was no shortage of food for every animal.  A snake was swimming in a pond. It had an eye on the plentiful fish in the pond. As it was about to catch a fish, the other fish saw it and pecked at it, biting and annoying it. The snake could not catch the fish. The disappointed snake swam to the shore and was about to leave the place. Just then it saw a frog croaking nearby. So it went to the frog and asked, "What is the justice in the act of the fish.        I was about to catch a big fish, but the other fish chased me off." The frog thought for a while and replied, "Of course, it is just. When the fish comes to you, you can eat it. But, when you go to the fish the fish have right to chase you off." Saying this, the frog leapt away saying to itself, "Oh God! I've been lucky today to have escaped." Moral: EVEN THE MIGHTY ERRS  !!! **** **** ****

HONEY BEE AND THE PIGEON - MORAL STORY

            It was the rainy season. The forest was thriving with lush green leaves and fresh flowers. All birds and animals were busy collecting food during breaks in the showering rain.           A pigeon was making some repair work in her nest. She was busy collecting available dry sticks. She was flying here and there. Suddenly, she saw a honey bee being drifted in the river below. The honey bee was trying hard to keep its wings dry. The pigeon was very much sorry for the bee. In an effort to save the honey bee, the pigeon plucked a dry leaf and threw it at the bee.         The honey bee was strong enough to lift itself and lay on the dry leaf for some time. Once she was totally dry, the honey bee flew happily saying, "Dear friend, I shall not forget this timely help." Days passed. Autumn came. Hunters poached the forest in search of animals to hunt. They killed any animal they set eyes on.     ...
