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."
   "Show you the way home?" asked the wolf, and laughed: "I am hungry. I want to eat you."
   The lamb didn't know what to do. Then he had an idea.
   "Oh, Mr. Wolf," he said, "I know that you can sing very well. And I like to dance. Please sing for me, I want to dance. It is my last dance before you eat me."
   The wolf liked these words. He thought that he could sing very well.
   "All right," he said. "I often sing before my dinner. Today I'm very hungry, but I can sing one song before I eat you."
   So the wolf sang a song and the lamb danced. Then the wolf stopped singing, but the lamb said:
   "Your song is wonderful. Can you sing louder?" 
   "Yes, I can sing louder than any other animal in the forest. Listen."
   So the wolf sang a very loud song, and the lamb danced again. But the wolf made so much noise that the dogs in the village heard him and ran into the forest to see what the matter was.  When the wolf saw the dogs, he ran away. And the little lamb ran quickly home to his mother.
