7. The Dove and the Ant
An ant once fell from the
edge of a brook in a
forest when a dove
stepped on it to drink.
The ant floated
helplessly, for to it, the
little brook was an ocean.

ant and so she took a
blade of grass and
threw it towards the ant.
The ant drifted ashore
on the leaf.

happened to pass by.
Seeing the pretty dove, he
set his gun and aimed at
the dove. The timely bite
of the ant on his heel
saved the dove from
death.

safely as the ant looked
happily.

16. The Proud Flower
Many, many years ago,
when the earth had only the
sun and the moon, the
flowers and the animals, the
rose was thought to be the
most beautiful flower.
It was so beautiful that all
the animals that lived during
that time admired it greatly.

17. One day, a butterfly got tired
flying. It perched on the lovely
rose to rest. The rose became
mad. It did not like any
butterfly or insect to perch on
its petals or leaves. It thought it
should do something about it.
At last it came up with an idea.
Thorns! It could surround itself
with thorns.

18. The rose plant became a dangerous
plant to touch. Many could admire it
but only a few could touch it. God did
not like this. He did not like the rose
plant to be proud. So He created
other beautiful flower-bearing
plants. He created other flowers that
are more beautiful than a rose. God
created orchids, tulips,
chrysanthemum, and many other
more beautiful flowers.

“We’re moving today,”

rake and come and help

24. But the son was so lazy
and did not want to
work, so he said, “I’m a
scholar and I have
forgotten all those
peasant words. What is
a rake?”

25. As we walked across the
yard, he stepped on a rake
that was lying in his way, and
it struck him on the forehead.
He suddenly seemed to recall
what a rake was and,
clutching his head, he cried,
“What fool left a rake lying
here?”
