The Lamb and the Wolf
One day a little lamb lost his way in a dark forest. He ran here and there, but he couldn't find his way home. He was scared and began to bleat.
A hungry wolf heard him. The wolf was happy to see such a good dinner.
"Oh, Mr. Wolf," said the little lamb, "please, show me the way home."

The Elephant and the Monkey
One day an elephant said to a monkey: "Look how big and strong I am! I can carry a very big tree. I am glad I am strong."
"Look how quick I am! I can run quickly, and I can climb a tree very quickly!" said the monkey. "And I am glad I am quick."
But which is better: a strong animal or a quick animal? They did not know. They argued, and each of them thought he was better.
