The hungry fox |
Once upon a time, there was a hungry fox
that was looking for something to eat. He was very hungry. No matter how hard
he tried, the fox could not find food. Finally he went to the edge of the
forest and searched there for food. Suddenly he caught sight of a big tree with
a hole in it.
Inside the hole was a package. The
hungry fox immediately thought that there might be food in it, and became very
happy. He jumped into the hole. When he opened the package, he saw slices of
bread, meat and fruit in it!
An old woodcutter had placed the food in
the tree trunk before he began to cut down trees in the forest. He was going to
eat it for his lunch.
The fox happily began to eat. After he
finished eating, he felt thirsty and decided to leave the hole and drink some
water from a nearby spring. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not
get out of the hole. Do you know why? Yes, the fox had eaten so much food that
he became too big to fit through the hole!
The fox was very sad and upset. He told himself, "I wish I had thought a little before jumping into the hole."
Yes children, this is the result of
doing something without thinking about it first.
