The Duck And The Peacock

By Roza Shaikh

One day in a jungle the animals were living like a family. They had their food together, slept together, and other things in the jungle together .One day in the jungle, something unusual happened. A peacock came into the jungle!” I’m the most beautiful animal! I’m the most beautiful animal! I’m the most beautiful animal!” A duck from the family came over.” It’s not nice to say, you are the most beautiful animal, it might hurt someone’s feelings.” I’m…I’m…I’m so sorry, I didn't mean to say that.” It’s okay,” said the duck with a smile on his face.” Everyone makes mistakes. Together they became friends.

Moral: Don’t brag and say you’re better than others, because it might hurt someone’s feelings.

One day, in the forest, little squirrel wasn’t looking were she was going, and climbed up fierce cheetah’s paw! Cheetah said, ”hey you! Get off my paw, or I’ll eat you!” but cheetah wasn’t hungry, so he let squirrel go. Squirrel said, ”Thank you, cheetah! One day I will repay your kindness.” The next day, cheetah’s cry rang out in the forest. Squirrel ran to see the commotion, and there she saw cheetah stuck in a net! Squirrel chewed cheetah free, and she said, ”I told you I would repay your kindness, but I didn’t know it would be this way!” The cheetah thanked her and they became friends.  The End

Moral: Treat others the way you want to be treated
