The Lion and the Mouse

 The Lion and the Mouse

Once upon a time, in a deep forest, a lion was sleeping peacefully under a big tree. A little mouse was running around and accidentally stepped on the lion’s paw. The lion woke up with a loud roar and caught the mouse in his huge paw.

“Who dares to disturb my sleep?” the lion growled.

“I’m sorry, O King of the Jungle!” squeaked the mouse. “Please let me go. I didn’t mean to wake you up. If you spare my life today, I will surely help you someday.”

The lion laughed loudly. “Ha ha ha! You, a tiny mouse, help me? That’s funny! But you’re too small to be my meal.” The lion gently let the mouse go.

Days passed. One day, the lion was walking in the forest when he got trapped in a hunter’s net. He roared and struggled, but the ropes were too strong. He couldn’t escape.

The little mouse heard the lion’s roar and rushed to the spot. “Don’t worry, my friend,” said the mouse. “I’ll help you.”

The mouse began to gnaw the ropes with his sharp little teeth. One by one, the ropes broke, and soon the lion was free.

The lion smiled and said, “Thank you, little mouse. I see now that even small friends can be great helpers.”

Moral: Even the small can help the mighty.
