STORIES FOR KIDS AND CHILDREN : THE GRAPES ARE SOUR

              THE GRAPES ARE SOUR


 There was a wixen named Manaki. She was

 wayward by nature . She used to roam about

 here and there all the time . She was very

 moody . She remained lost in herself . Once,

 Manaki was passing through the forest . She

 happened to see the bunches of grapes

 hanging along the creeper . Seeing the grapes

 her mouth began to water . She thanked her

 luck and decided to pluck the grapes .


 And she started to jump to reach the grapes .

 But the grapes were out of her reach. They

 were too high to be even touched by her. She

 said to herself," Let me try better ," and she

 jumped again with all her might , but in vain.


 However , she did not give in and kept on

 jumping up to reach the grapes. But all her

 efforts proved a failure to reach the grapes.

 soon her constant jumping tired her badly and

 she sat down to take rest.


 Then looking at the juicy grapes . She said to

herself , " Manaki , leave the grapes . You are

 making useless efforts for them . They are not

 sweet as you think but sour . Thinking so , the

 fox went away.



 Moral : We should not be greedy.

English Story :Gulliver In Lilliput

 Gulliver was a great sea lover. He lived in England with his wife and children. Although he was a physician, yet his love for the sea often led him to long sea voyages In the year 1712, during one such voyage, his ship named " The Antelope " was wrecked being caught in a violent storm. Gulliver , not seeing any fellow sailor around, had no choice but to move alone where the destiny would take him. Floating day and night on a broken piece  of the wrecked ship, he reached a lonely island. Exhausted with constant labour, he fell fast asleep. When Gulliver came out of his slumber, he was feeling quite hungry. To fetch himself with something to eat, he tried to get up but he couldn't. 'Oh Good! Why can't I move myself?' said Gulliver to himself. As he looked around, he discovered that he was fastened tightly with many fibre ropes from head to toe. Suddenly, he saw some mini creatures crawling on his legs and hands. Some of them even climbed his chest. Gullive
