THE LION AND THE MOUSE

One day a lion slept in the jungle . A tiny mouse ran over the lions
head and down his nose. The lion awoke witha load roar. He was very
angry .

The lions opened his huge jaws to the mouse.


"Pardon me, O king, I beg of you" cried the frightened Mouse.
"If you will only forgive me this time, I shall never forget your
kindness. I meant no harm and I certainly didn't want to disturb your
majesty.
If you will spare my live, perhaps I may be able odo you a good
turn ,too."
The Lion began to laugh, laugh and laughed.
" How could a tiny creature like you ever do anything to help me?
And he shook with laughter.
"Oh well," he shrugged, looking down at the frightened mouse,
"you're not so much of a meal any way."
He took His paw off the poor little prisoner and the mouse quickly
scampered away.
Sometimes after this, some hunters, trying to capture the lion
alive.They Set Up Rope nets in the jungle. The lion fell into the trap He
roared and trashed.
Hos thunderous belows echoed through the jungle. The tiny mouse
heard the lion's roars.
"That my be lion who once freed me,"he said , remembering his
promise. And he ran to see wheter he could help .

Discovering the sad state the Lion was in, the mouse said to him,
"stop, stop ! You must not roar. If you make so much noise, the hunters
will come and capture you. I'll get you out of this trap .
With his sharp little teeth the mouse gnawed at the ropes until they
broke. The lion was stepped out of the net and was free. Then the mouse
said , "Now , was I not right ?"
"Thank you , good mouse”, said Lion Gently. "You did help me
even though I'm big and you so little . I see now what kindness is Always
worth While."
