A Lion and a Mouse
A Lion and a Mouse
Ans. One day
a lion was sleeping in its cave. A mouse was playing nearby. While playing, the
mouse came on the lion's body. When it came on the lion’s ear, the lion woke up
and became very angry. He caught the mouse and said, "O little mouse, how
dare you tease me? I’ll kill you now.
Hearing this, the mouse became
frightened and begged for its life. It said, “One day I may help you in your
danger." Hearing this lion laughed but let it free. Some days later, the
lion was caught in a hunter's net. He began to roar. The mouse heard the roar
of the lion. It cut the net with its sharp teeth and saved the lion.
The lion became very grateful. He
apologized to the mouse for his previous behavior. He said, "I’ve learnt a
great lesson that even a little creature can help a big creature."
