The Lion and the Rabbit

A cruel lion lived in the forest. Every day, he killed and ate a lot of animals. The other animals were afraid the lion would kill them all.

The animals told the lion, “Let’s make a deal. If you promise to eat only one animal each day, then one of us will come to you every day. Then you don’t have to hunt and kill us.”

The plan sounded well thought-out to the lion, so he agreed, but he also said, “If you don’t come every day, I promise to kill all of you the next day!”

Each day after that, one animal went to the lion so that the lion could eat it. Then, all the other animals were safe.

Finally, it was the rabbit’s turn to go to the lion. The rabbit went very slowly that day, so the lion was angry when the rabbit finally arrived.

The lion angrily asked the rabbit, “Why are you late?”

“I was hiding from another lion in the forest. That lion said he was the king, so I was afraid.”

The lion told the rabbit, “I am the only king here! Take me to that other lion, and I will kill him.»

The rabbit replied, “I will be happy to show you where he lives.”

The rabbit led the lion to an old well in the middle of the forest. The well was very deep with water at the bottom. The rabbit told the lion, “Look in there. The lion lives at the bottom.”

When the lion looked in the well, he could see his own face in-the water. He thought that was the other lion. Without waiting another moment, the lion jumped into the well to attack the other lion. He never came out.

All of the other animal in the forest were very pleased with the rabbit’s clever trick.

JOE’S POND

Joe made the world a better place. He got the idea to

do that at school. He watched a video there. It was

about a factory. This factory produced a lot of

trash and put it in a river. The trash and water were

a bad mix. People populated the area by the river

and drank its water. This made them sick. Many of

them needed medicine and made regular visits to

doctors.

But the video wasn’t all bad news. It showed ways to

pick up trash and why it’s important to do this. It said

people can make a diﬀerence to their environment.

The video’s important features made Joe associate

trash with hurting people.

One day Joe walked through a park. He recognized

some of the problems from the video. One instance

of these problems was the trash in the pond. It was

full of plastic cups. There was too much trash. Joe

didn’t want it to hurt anyone.

He told his grandfather about the park. His

grandfather said, “You know, it’s a tradition in our

family to help people. That’s why we give food to

poor people. Maybe you can help people by cleaning

the park.”

Cleaning the park would involve hard work. Joe

decided to organize a group to help him. He chose

a wide area of the park. It had the most trash. He

asked his family and friends to come. On Saturday,

he gave everyone a sharp stick. They wondered why.

He said, “You use the stick’s tip to pick up trash. This

makes it easier.” They worked for six weeks. Diﬀerent

people helped each time, but Joe was always there.

In that period of time, Joe saw a range of results.

There was no trash in the water. People could swim in

it. Joe knew that was a good sign. He was happy

because he helped his environment.
