The Wolf and the Squirrel

Here's a FABLE that I wrote for school:


One day in the woods, everyone was getting ready for the cold winter. King Lion was closing the gates of his castle. Sir Monkey was gathering bananas and bringing them to his hut perched on the strongest branches of the trees.

During the freezing winter frost, Mr. Wolf, the rascal of the village, had gobbled up all of his food. He was in search of more for the next day.

“Lion,” said the wolf “do you have any food?”
“None for you.” said King Lion.
The wolf went on to the monkeys hut. “Sir Monkey, do you have any–”
“GO AWAY!” yelled Sir Monkey.
As Mr. Wolf sadly walked away he came across a squirrel.
“What is wrong with you?” asked the squirrel.
“Huh?” said Mr. Wolf.
“What do you want?” demanded the squirrel
“FOOD!” said Mr. Wolf.
“No. I have seen you play jokes and pranks on everyone around this village. You’ve wasted all of your food and this is what you deserve. Besides,” he said, as he scurried away in his hole. “You might have eaten me!”
“Yes, I would have eaten you!” the wolf snapped as he walked away.
