The Lying Wolf
Rosie Dulai; Sarah Erceg; Navneet Kaur; and Jessica Wong
Doe rabbit: –It’s twelve o’clock in the afternoon and the sun is yellow.
Dog: –Yes, it’s nice.
Female cat: –It feels good on my skin.
Female duck: –The sun warms the blue water. I like the color blue.
Wolf: –Hello, guys! How’s everybody? I see the farmers talking and they say that you are very lazy.
The dog asks: –Why? What’s going on?
The female duck asks: –Who says this?
Wolf: –I’m thinking that the farmers want to sell you all, but not me.
The doe rabbit asks: –What can we do to change this?
Wolf: –Humm! If you help me I can help you.
The female cat says: –What do you want?
Wolf: –You can prepare dinner for me.
The doe rabbit says: –NO! Why?
Wolf: –Well! The farmers will sell you.
The dog says: –OH NO! help us wolf.
The doe rabbit says: –Yes, help us.
Wolf: –Perfect!
A few days later…
The female cat asks the other animals: –Why are we doing this?
Dog: –I already feel tired of cooking for the wolf.
Doe rabbit: –I don’t understand.
Female cat: –Why do the farmers want to sell us?
Doe rabbit: –Let’s ask the wolf. Is he lying to us?
The wolf appears suddenly and says: –No!
Dog: –I don’t think the farmers will sell us.
Doe rabbit: –We work a lot on the farm. I wash the pool every day.
Female cat: –I attack mice every day.
Doe rabbit: –I clean the patio every day.
Dog: –I take care of the farm at ten o’clock every day.
Doe rabbit: –I think the wolf is a liar.
The wolf tells them laughing: –Yes, I’m lying.
The doe rabbit says: –Friends don’t lie.
The cat says to the wolf: –If you apologize, we will forgive you.
Wolf: –Sorry for being mean! Do you forgive me?
They all say: –Yes, we forgive you!
Moral: Lying creates mistrust among friends.
