The Fox and the Stork

One day, a selfish fox invited a stork for dinner. Stork was very happy with the invitation –

she reached the fox’s home on time and knocked at the door with her long beak. The fox took

her to the dinner table and served some soup in shallow bowls for both of them. As the bowl

was too shallow for the stork, she couldn’t have soup at all. But, the fox licked up his soup

quickly.

The stork was angry and upset, but she didn’t show her anger and behaved politely. To teach

a lesson to the fox, she then invited him for dinner the next day. She too served soup, but this

time the soup was served in two tall narrow vases. The stork devoured the soup from her

vase, but the fox couldn’t drink any of it because of his narrow neck. The fox realised his

mistake and went home famished.

Moral of the Story

A selfish act backfires sooner or later!

The Proud Rose


Once upon a time, there was a beautiful rose plant in a garden. One rose flower on the plant

was proud of its beauty. However, it was disappointed that it was growing next to an ugly

cactus. Every day, the rose would insult the cactus about its looks, but the cactus stayed quiet.

All the other plants in the garden tried to stop the rose from bullying the cactus, but the rose

was too swayed by its own beauty to listen to anyone.

One summer, a well in the garden dried up and there was no water for the plants. The rose

slowly began to wilt. The rose saw a sparrow dip its beak into the cactus for some water. The

rose then felt ashamed for having made fun of the cactus all this time. But because it was in

need of water, it went to ask the cactus if it could have some water. The kind cactus agreed,

and they both got through summer as friends!

Moral of the Story

Never judge someone by the way they look.

The Woodcutter and the Golden Axe

There was once a woodcutter, working hard in the forest, getting wood to sell for some food.

As he was cutting a tree, his axe accidentally fell into the river. The river was deep and was
flowing really fast – he lost his axe and could not find it again. He sat at the bank of the river

and wept.

While he wept, the God of the river arose and asked him what happened. The woodcutter told

him the story. The God of the river offered to help him by looking for his axe. He

disappeared into the river and retrieved a golden axe, but the woodcutter said it was not his.

He disappeared again and came back with a silver axe, but the woodcutter said that was not

his either. The God disappeared into the water again and came back with an iron axe – the

woodcutter smiled and said it was his. The God was impressed with the woodcutter’s honesty

and gifted him both the golden and silver axes.

Moral of the Story

Honesty is the best policy

The Ant and the Dove

On a hot day of summer, an ant was walking around in search of water. After walking around

for some time, she saw a river and was delighted to see it. She climbed up on a small rock to

drink the water, but she slipped and fell into the river. She was drowning but a dove who was

sitting on a nearby tree helped her. Seeing the ant in trouble, the dove quickly dropped a leaf

into the water. The ant moved towards the leaf and climbed up on it. The dove then carefully
pulled the leaf out and placed it on the land. This way, the ant’s life was saved and she was

forever indebted to the dove.

The ant and the dove became the best of friends and days passed happily. However, one day,

a hunter arrived at the forest. He saw the beautiful dove sitting on the tree and aimed his gun

at the dove. The ant, who was saved the dove saw this and bit on the heel of the hunter. He

shouted from the pain and dropped the gun. The dove was alarmed by the voice of the hunter

and realised what could have happened with him. He flew away!

Moral of the Story :A good deed never goes unrewarded.

 The Crystal Ball


Nasir, a small boy, found a crystal ball behind the banyan tree of his garden. The tree told

him that it would grant him a wish. He was very happy and he thought hard, but

unfortunately, he could not come up with anything he wanted. So, he kept the crystal ball in

his bag and waited until he could decide on his wish.

Days went by without him making a wish but his best friend saw him looking at the crystal

ball. He stole it from Nasir and showed it to everyone in the village. They all asked for

palaces and riches and lots of gold, but could not make more than one wish. In the end,

everyone was angry because no one could have everything they wanted. They became very
unhappy and decided to ask Nasir for help. Nasir wished that everything would go back to

how it was once – before the villagers had tried to satisfy their greed. The palaces and gold

vanished and the villagers once again became happy and content.

Moral of the Story

Money and wealth do not always bring happiness.
