The Foolish Donkey


One evening, a hungry lion came out of the jungle to look for food.  He walked to a farm.  He saw many animals on the farm.  There was a fat donkey near the fence.
“This fat donkey will be my dinner!” said the hungry lion. He walked slowly behind the donkey.
A rooster saw the lion. He crowed loudly and flapped his wings to warn the donkey.
The donkey heard the rooster. He saw the lion behind him and ran away. The rooster’s loud cry also frightened the lion.
The donkey said to himself, “I’m bigger than the rooster.  If the lion is afraid of the rooster, he will be more afraid of me.” Then the donkey came out of the farm and chased the lion.
The donkey had forgotten that the lion was the strongest of all animals. The lion bounced back on the donkey and killed it.
