 1. The Bear and The Two Friends
Once two friends were walking through the forest.
They knew that anything dangerous can happen to
them at any time in the forest. So they promised each
other that they would remain united in any case of
danger.
Suddenly, they saw a large bear approaching
them. One of the friends at once climbed a nearby tree.
But the other one did not know how to climb. So being
led by his common sense, he lay down on the ground
breathless, pretending to be a dead man.
The bear came near the man lying on the ground.
It smelt in his ears, and slowly left the place. Because
the bears do not touch the dead creatures.Now the
friend on the tree came down and asked his friend on
the ground, Friend, what did the bear tell you into your
ears? The other friend replied, The bear advised me
not to believe a false friend.

2. Flock of Doves
Once upon a time, there was a flock of doves that
flew in search of food led by their king. They had flown
a long distance and were very tired. The smallest dove
picked up speed and found some rice scattered
beneath a banyan tree. So all the doves landed and
began to eat.
Suddenly a net fell over them and they were all
trapped. They saw a hunter approaching carrying. The
doves desperately fluttered their wings trying to get
out, but to no avail. The king had an idea. He advised
all the doves to fly up together carrying the net with
them.
 Each dove picked up a portion of the net and
together they flew off carrying the net with them. The
hunter looked up in astonishment. He tried to follow
them, but they were flying high over hills and valleys.
They flew to a hill near a city of temples where there
lived a mouse who could help them. He was a faithful
friend of the dove king.
The mouse agreed saying that he would set the
king free first. The king insisted that he first free his
subjects and the king last. The mouse understood the
kings feelings and complied with his wishes. He began
to cut the net and one by one all the doves were freed
including the dove king.

3. The Little Mouse

Once upon a time there was a Baby Mouse and
Mother Mouse. They lived in a hole in the a big warm
house with lots of cheese to eat.
Then, one day, Mother Mouse decided to take Baby
Mouse outside of their home. Waiting outside for them
was a huge ginger tomcat, licking its lips and waiting
to eat them both up.
Mother, Mother! What should we do? Cried Baby
Mouse, clinging to his mothers tail. Mother Mouse
paused, staring up into the beady eyes of the hungry
cat. But she wasnt scared, because she knew exactly
how to deal with big, scary cats. She opened her mouth
and took in a deep breath.
Woof! Woof! Bark bark bark! She shouted, and
the cat ran away as fast as he could.
Wow, Mother! That was amazing! Baby Mouse
said to his mother, smiling happily.
 And that, my child, is why it is always best to have
a second language.

4. The Rabbit and the Turtle

One day a rabbit was boasting about how fast he
could run. He was laughing at the turtle for being so
slow.
Much to the rabbits surprise, the turtle challenged
him to a race. The rabbit thought this was a good joke
and accepted the challenge. The fox was to be the
umpire of the race. As the race began, the rabbit raced
way ahead of the turtle, just like everyone thought.
The rabbit got to the halfway point and could not
see the turtle anywhere. He was hot and tired and
decided to stop and take a short nap. All this time the
turtle kept walking step by step by step. He never quit
no matter how hot or tired he got. He just kept going.
However, the rabbit slept longer than he had thought
and woke up. He could not see the turtle anywhere! He
went at full-speed to the finish line but found the turtle
there waiting for him.

5. Story of Lion and His Fear

There was a lion who feared nothing except the
crowing of cocks. A chill would go down his spine
whenever he heard a cock crowing.
One day he confessed his fear to the elephant, who
was greatly amused. How can the crowing of a cock
hurt you? he asked the lion. Think about it!
Just then a mosquito began circling the elephants
head. If it gets into my ear Im doomed! he shrieked,
flailing at the insect with his trunk. Now it was the lions
turn to feel amused.
