____________________________.
Once a wolf killed a lamb and started eating it.
Suddenly a piece of bone stuck in its throat.
It cried out of pain and called for help.
There came a crane.
The wolf lured the crane that it will give lot of rewards.
The greedy crane immediately agreed and removed the piece of bone
with its long nose.
The wolf was relieved of its pain.
Then the crane asked for the rewards.
The wolf laughed at the crane and said, "I have already rewarded you
without biting your head.
Run away from here, else I will kill you".
The crane was very much disappointed and ran way to save its life.
My friends!
You should help only those who deserve for it.
That is the moral value that we can learn from this story. Thank you.
A Wise Old Owl
A very good morning to all my teachers and friends.
I’m ____________________ and I am going to tell you a story entitled
____________________________.
There was an old owl that lived in an oak.
Every day he saw incidents happening around him.
Yesterday he saw a boy helping an old man to carry a heavy basket.
Today he saw a girl shouting at her mother.
The more he saw the less he spoke.
As he spoke less, he heard more.
He heard people talking and telling stories.
He heard a woman saying that an elephant jumped over a fence.
He also heard a man saying that he had never made a mistake.
The old owl had seen and heard about what happened to people.
Some became better and some became worse.
But the old owl had become wiser each and every day.
My friends!
You should be observant, talk less but listen more. This will make you a
wise person.
That is the moral value that we can learn from this story. Thank you.

There lived two silly goats in a village.
There was a narrow bridge over a river in the village.
One day, the goats wanted to cross the bridge.
One silly goat was on one side.

The other goat said, “No. I must cross first. You move aside."

Once, a crow was very thirsty.
The crow searched for water everywhere.
“Kaa, Kaa, Kaa…"
At last he saw a pot with very little water in it.
He put his beak inside. But he could not reach down the water.
The crow thought of a plan.
He picked some pebbles and dropped then into the pot one by one.
The water level rose.
The crow drank the water and flew away happily.

It was a hot summer day.
A lion was feeling very hungry.
He came out of his den and searched here and there.
He could find only a small hare.
He caught the hare with some hesitation. "This hare cannot fill my
tummy" thought the lion.
As the lion was about to kill the hare, a deer ran that way.
The lion became greedy. He thought, "Instead of eating this small hare,
let me eat the big deer".
He let the hare go and went behind the deer.
But the deer had vanished into the forest.
The lion now felt sorry for letting the hare off.
That is the end of my story. Thank you.

I’m ____________________ and I am going to tell you a story entitled
____________________________.
A lion was once sleeping in the jungle when a mouse started running
up and down his body just for fun. This disturbed the lion’s sleep, and
he woke up quite angry. He was about to eat the mouse when the
mouse desperately requested the lion to set him free. “I promise you, I
will be of great help to you someday if you save me.” The lion laughed
at the mouse’s confidence and let him go.
One day, a few hunters came into the forest and took the lion with
them. They tied him up against a tree. The lion was struggling to get
out and started to whimper. Soon, the mouse walked past and noticed
the lion in trouble. Quickly, he ran and gnawed on the ropes to set the
lion free. Both of them sped off into the jungle.
The morale value of the story is small act of kindness can go a long
way. That is the end of my story. Thank you.
Count Wisely.
A very good morning to all my teachers and friends.
I’m ____________________ and I am going to tell you a story entitled
____________________________.
One day, king Akbar asked a question in his court that left everyone in
the courtroom puzzled. As they all tried to figure out the answer,
Birbal walked in and asked what the matter was. They repeated the
question to him.
The question was, “How many crows are there in the city?”
Birbal immediately smiled and went up to Akbar. He announced the
answer; he said there were twenty-one thousand, five hundred and
twenty-three crows in the city. When asked how he knew the answer,
Birbal replied, “Ask your men to count the number of crows. If there
are more, then the relatives of the crows must be visiting them from
nearby cities. If there are fewer, then the crows from our city must be
visiting their relatives who live outside the city.” Pleased with the
answer, Akbar presented Birbal with a ruby and pearl chain.
The morale value of the story is having an explanation for your answer
is just as important as having an answer. That is the end of my story.
Thank you.
The Boy Who Cried Wolf.
A very good morning to all my teachers and friends.
I’m ____________________ and I am going to tell you a story entitled
____________________________.
In a village, lived a carefree boy with his father. The boy’s father told
him that he was old enough to watch over the sheep while they graze
in the fields. Every day, he had to take the sheep to the grassy fields
and watch them as they graze. However, the boy was unhappy and
didn’t want to take the sheep to the fields. He wanted to run and play,
not watch the boring sheep graze in the field. So, he decided to have
some fun. He cried, “Wolf! Wolf!” until the entire village came running
with stones to chase away the wolf before it could eat any of the
sheep. When the villagers saw that there was no wolf, they left
muttering under their breath about how the boy had wasted their
time. The next day, the boy cried once more, “Wolf! Wolf!” and, again,
the villagers rushed there to chase the wolf away.
The boy laughed at the fright he had caused. This time, the villagers
left angrily. The third day, as the boy went up the small hill, he
suddenly saw a wolf attacking his sheep. He cried as hard as he could,
“Wolf! Wolf! Wolf!”, but not a single villager came to help him. The
villagers thought that he was trying to fool them again and did not
come to rescue him or his sheep. The little boy lost many sheep that
day, all because of his foolishness.
The morale value of the story is it is difficult to trust people who lie, so
it’s important to always be truthful. That is the end of my story. Thank
you.
The Fox and the Stork.
A very good morning to all my teachers and friends.
I’m ____________________ and I am going to tell you a story entitled
____________________________.
One day, a selfish fox invited a stork for dinner. Stork was very happy
with the invitation – she reached the fox’s home on time and knocked
at the door with her long beak. The fox took her to the dinner table
and served some soup in shallow bowls for both of them. As the bowl
was too shallow for the stork, she couldn’t have soup at all. But, the
fox licked up his soup quickly.
The stork was angry and upset, but she didn’t show her anger and
behaved politely. To teach a lesson to the fox, she then invited him for
dinner the next day. She too served soup, but this time the soup was
served in two tall narrow vases. The stork devoured the soup from her
vase, but the fox couldn’t drink any of it because of his narrow neck.
The fox realised his mistake and went home famished.
The morale value of the story is a selfish act backfires sooner or later!
That is the end of my story. Thank you.
The Golden Touch.
A very good morning to all my teachers and friends.
I’m ____________________ and I am going to tell you a story entitled
____________________________.
Once there lived a greedy man in a small town. He was very rich, and
he loved gold and all things fancy. But he loved his daughter more than
anything. One day, he chanced upon a fairy. The fairy’s hair was caught
in a few tree branches. He helped her out, but as his greediness took
over, he realised that he had an opportunity to become richer by
asking for a wish in return (by helping her out). The fairy granted him a
wish. He said, “All that I touch should turn to gold.” And his wish was
granted by the grateful fairy.
The greedy man rushed home to tell his wife and daughter about his
wish, all the while touching stones and pebbles and watching them
convert into gold. Once he got home, his daughter rushed to greet
him. As soon as he bent down to scoop her up in his arms, she turned
into a gold statue. He was devastated and started crying and trying to
bring his daughter back to life. He realised his folly and spent the rest
of his days searching for the fairy to take away his wish.
The morale value of the story is Greed will always lead to downfall.
That is the end of my story. Thank you.
The Milkmaid and Her Pail.
A very good morning to all my teachers and friends.
I’m ____________________ and I am going to tell you a story entitled
____________________________.
Patty, a milkmaid milked her cow and had two full pails of fresh,
creamy milk. She put both pails of milk on a stick and set off to the
market to sell the milk. As she took steps towards the market, her
thoughts took steps towards wealth. On her way, she kept thinking
about the money she would make from selling the milk. Then she
thought about what she would do with that money.
She was talking to herself and said, “Once I get the money, I’ll buy a
chicken. The chicken will lay eggs and I will get more chickens. They’ll
all lay eggs, and I will sell them for more money. Then, I’ll buy the
house on the hill and everyone will envy me.” She was very happy that
soon she would be very rich. With these happy thoughts, she marched
ahead. But suddenly, she tripped and fell. Both the pails of the milk fell
and all her dreams were shattered. The milk spilt onto the ground, and
all Patty could do was cry. “No more dream,” she cried foolishly!
The morale value of the story is do not count your chickens before
they are hatched.. That is the end of my story. Thank you.
The Tale of the Pencil.
A very good morning to all my teachers and friends.
I’m ____________________ and I am going to tell you a story entitled
____________________________.
A boy named Raj was upset because he had done poorly in his English
test. He was sitting in his room when his grandmother came and
comforted him. His grandmother sat beside him and gave him a pencil.
Raj looked at his grandma puzzled, and said he didn’t deserve a pencil
after his performance in the test.
His grandma explained, “You can learn many things from this pencil
because it is just like you. It experiences a painful sharpening, just the
way you have experienced the pain of not doing well on your test.
However, it will help you be a better student. Just as all the good that
comes from the pencil is from within itself, you will also find the
strength to overcome this hurdle. And finally, just as this pencil will
make its mark on any surface, you too shall leave your mark on
anything you choose to.” Raj was immediately consoled and promised
himself that he would do better.
The morale value of the story we all have the strength to be who we
wish to be. That is the end of my story. Thank you.
A Bundle of Sticks.
A very good morning to all my teachers and friends.
I’m ____________________ and I am going to tell you a story entitled
____________________________.
Once upon a time, three neighbours living in a village were having
trouble with their crops. Each of the neighbours had one field, but the
crops on their fields were infested with pests and were wilting. Every
day, they would come up with different ideas to help their crops. The
first one tried using a scarecrow in his field, the second used
pesticides, and the third built a fence on his field, all to no avail.
One day, the village head came by and called the three farmers. He
gave them each a stick and asked them to break it. The farmers could
break them easily. He then gave them a bundle of three sticks, and
again, asked them to break it. This time, the farmers struggled to break
the sticks. The village head said, “Together, you are stronger and work
better than you do it alone.” The farmers understood what the village
head was saying. They pooled in their resources and got rid of the
pests from their fields.
The morale value of the story is there is strength in unity. That is the
end of my story. Thank you.
