The Lion and the Mouse
One day a lion was asleep and a little mouse ran over the lion’s back. The lion woke up, put his paw on
the mouse and opened his big mouth. He wanted to eat the mouse.
“Oh, king,” cried the mouse” I am so sorry! I will never climb on you again!
Maybe one day I will also help you.”
The lion laughed at the silly mouse.” Ha, ha, ha! You will help me- ha, ha!” but he let him go.
One week later, hunters caught the lion. They tied the lion to a tree and went to find a wagon to carry
him away.
The little mouse heard the lion roar. When he saw the big lion tied to the tree, he said, ”I am going to
help you!” slowly he ate away the ropes. ”I told you I can help you” said the little mouse and he was
right.
