STORIES FOR KIDS AND CHILDREN : AN HONEST WOODCUTTER

Once , there was a woodcutter named Bholu .

 One day , while he was cutting the wood on a

 tree on the bank of the river , his axe slipped

 out of his hand and fell into the water. He

 began to cry for losing his axe into the water

 which was the only means of his livelihood .


 Hearing the cry of Bholu the god of the water

 appeared before him and asked ,"Why are

 you weeping? "

 Bholu then told the god of water that his axe

 had fallen into the river .

 "Do not weep," said the god of water ," I will

 bring your axe back to you ." The god of water

 took a dip and after some time came out with

 an axe of gold.

" Here is yours axe ! Take it ."

" No , this is not mine. I won't take it ."

Then the god of water again took a dip in the

 water and came out with an axe made of silver.

 He asked Bholu to take it but he refused.


 The god of water again went into the water

 and came out with the axe of Bholu. Seeing his

 own axe , Bholu exclaimed with joy ," yes, yes !

 This is my axe ."

 
 The god of water was very happy with Bholu's

 honesty . He gave all the three axes to Bholu

 as a reward of his honesty saying , " You can

 have these axes too because you are an honest

 man ."


Moral : Honesty is the best policy .

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
