The Mother and the Wolf
One early morning, a hungry Adapted from the fables of Aesop
wolf comes near a village. He
wants to hunt some chicks. As
he walks by, he comes near a
house. He hears a small baby
crying badly. Then, the mother
says, “Hush, baby hush! Stop
crying or I will give you to the
wolf.”
The wolf is happy. He thinks
now the mother will give him
the child. He dreams of eating
the child. He goes under the
window and waits. He waits and waits. The baby goes on crying
but the mother does not throw the child out.
Now, the sun is about to set. The mother sits near the window.
She rocks the baby to sleep and sings:
“There, child, there! The wolf shall not get you. No, no! Daddy is
watching and Daddy will kill him if he dares to come near!”
Right then, the father comes home. He comes with their dog. The
dog comes rushing. The wolf runs just in time to save himself.
The wolf is too foolish to believe everything he hears.
