1. The Poor Bunny’s Magic Present
By Pedro Pablo Sacristan
Once upon a time there was a place where animals were
suffering greatly from drought and hunger. A very poor bunny
was walking sadly through the fields when, all of a sudden, a
wizard appeared in front of him.

2. The wizard offered the bunny a bag filled
with little bouquets of flowers.

3. “They are magical, and they’re even more
magical if you know how to use them properly,”
said the wizard. The bunny was dying of hunger,
but he decided not to eat the bouquets. He wanted
to put them to good use.
On his way home, the bunny met a very old
and poor sheep who could hardly walk. “Can you
give me something?” asked the sheep.

4. The bunny had nothing except his bouquets, and since
they were magical, he was unwilling to give them to the
sheep. But he remembered how his parents had always
taught him to share everything; so he pulled a bouquet
out of the bag and gave it to the sheep. As soon as he did
this, the bunch shone with a thousand colors. Magic was
at work.

5. The bunny continued his way, feeling both happy and a bit
annoyed. He had given away one of the bouquets, but at the
same time it was obvious that the sheep needed it more than he
did. As he continued his journey, the very same thing happened
to the bunny when he met a blind duck and then a lame rooster.
When the bunny arrived home, he had only one magical
bouquet left. He told his parents all about what had happened
with the wizard.

6. His parents were very proud of the bunny’s
behavior. He was about to pull out the final
bouquet, when his little brother arrived home,
crying with hunger. The bunny gave his brother the
magical bouquet.

7. At that moment, with a great rumble of thunder, the wizard appeared
again. He asked the bunny “Where are the magical bouquets I gave
you? What have you done with them?” The bunny was frightened and
he started to say sorry. But the wizard interrupted, saying, “Didn’t I
tell you that if you used them well they’d be even more magical?
Well, go outside and see what you’ve done!”

8. The bunny went out, shaking. What he saw was something unbelievable.
As far as the eye could see, the whole countryside had turned into
wonderful, green farmland. Farmland with enough water and food to
feed all the animals!
The bunny felt very happy that he had acted as he did, and that the magic
of his generosity would bring happiness to everyone.

11. For group 1, your task is you are going
to write a thank you letter for bunny and
pretend that you are the sheep, duck
and rooster. 1 letter from the sheep, 1
letter from the duck and 1 letter from the
rooster

12. Group 2 will list down 3
ways of showing
generosity to others.

every group for the group
presentation. Post your work on
the board.

animals?

16. The wizard offered the bunny a bag filled

25. The Legend of Locusts
There once lived a rich man named Lucoy who was very selfish. Although he had
much rice in his house, he never shared any to the poor and needy.
One day, an old beggar came to his house to ask for food. Lucoy was rude to
him and told him to go away. The beggar who was a bit deaf asked again for
food. Lucoy pushed him roughly out of the house. The beggar stumbled and fell.
When he got to his feet, he told Lucoy, “A great misfortune will soon happen to
you,” suddenly there was loud roaring thunder and a lightning flashed across the
sky.
That evening, when Lucoy went home, he saw a swarm of insects around his
house. The air was filled with the noise they made. He went outside and found
that his rice had turned into insects which we now call locusts.
