The fox is a wild animal that looks like
a dog. It has a pointed nose and ears ,
a bushy tail and thick fur. The fox is
said to be a very clever animal in
fooling others. The wolf is a wild
animal that looks like a dog too. It has
thick fur and pointed muzzle. Wolves
and foxes hunt other animals.
Sometimes, they end up hunting each
other.
12. One night, a fox met a wolf in the forest. The wolf was
very hungry and in a terrible mood. So the wolf said
to the fox.
“Don’t move! I’m going to eat you this minute.”
As he spoke, the wolf backed the fox up against a
tree. The fox realized she could not run away.
“I have to use my wits instead of my legs,” she said to
herself.
“I could have been a good dinner for you last year. I
was then very fat and plump. But I had three babies
then. Now I’m slim and not delicious.”
“I don’t care if you are plump or not. I don’t care how
many babies you have. I’m going to eat you right
now!”
13. The wolf began closing in on the fox.
“Stop!, the fox shouted. “ Look how skinny I am. I
ran off all my fat looking for my babies. But I know
a place where you can find something good and
fat.”
Wolf backed off and listened to Fox.
“There is a well near here. In the bottom of it is a
big round piece of meat. You can get it instead of
eating me. Shall we go?”
The wolf trotted off after the fox, making sure that
she could not run away. They came upon a well.
“See for yourself, what a fat juicy piece of meat is
at the bottom of this well. I wanted to get it for my
babies. But you can have it.”
14. Inside the well was a delicious looking
yellow round piece of meat. Above the
well, the moon shone bright and clear.
The wolf leaned over the well
wondering how to get the piece of
meat. The fox jumped up quickly and
pushed the wolf down into the deep
well.
“ I’m a sly old mother Fox!” Fox said to
herself.
