　　The Frog and the Cow

　　Baby frogs went on a picnic in the woods. Getting out of the pond for the first time, they sang merrily.

　　Then, they found a cow grazing in a field. "Oh, my! What is that?" "It is huge!" All of them wondered what kind of animal it was. "Let's ask Daddy."

　　They returned home in a hurry and shouted, "Daddy, we saw a strange animal." "What kind of animal was it?"

　　"It had large horns on its head and its body was way bigger than you. Even if we all add up our power, we can not defeat that animal."

　　The father was curious what the animal looked like. "Really? Was it bigger than my stomach?" "Yes. Much bigger than that!"

　　The father frog blew up his stomach largely, "Well, now, I'm as big as the animal, right?" "No, you are as big as the animal's heel." The father puffed himself up deeply and blew up his stomach enormously.

　　"How about now? Am I as big as the animal, huh?" "No, not even." Thinking he could not be outdone, the father frog puffed up his stomach even more.

　　The father frog's stomach was blown up as big as he could get. Right at that very moment, the father frog's stomach burst with a bang.

　　The city mouse and the country mouse 

　　A city mouse and a country mouse were distant relatives. The country mouse wrote a letter to the city mouse. "How are you, my city cousin? Come visit us sometime." The city mouse in his best suit visited the country mouse.

　　"Welcome. Please help yourself before you leave." The country mouse prepared rice, beans and dried fruit. The city mouse laughed at the food and said,

　　"Gosh! You invited me over to give me this kind of food? You should come visit me. I will treat you to delicious food." The city mouse bragged about the city where he was living to the country mouse.

　　"Thank you for inviting me. I will come over for sure." Thinking about his trip to the city, the country mouse was too excited to sleep. 'At last, I'm going to the city tomorrow.'

　　Delighted, the country mouse came to the city mouse's house. "Knock, knock." "Anybody home?" "Oh, welcome!" greeted the city mouse cheerfully. The city mouse showed the country mouse all over his house.

　　The country mouse was surprised how grand the house was. "The house is really big.Magnificent! I am so proud that you are my relative." "Don't mention it." The city mouse was pleased.

　　The city mouse led the country mouse to the kitchen. When they climbed up the table, there were a large piece of bread, fruit and cheese on it. "Well, help yourself. I have food like this everyday." "Wow! They look delicious. I envy you."

　　The country mouse began eating the tasty cheese. It was right then that the kitchen door opened with a bang and a man came in. The city mouse dragged the country mouse and ran away helter-skelter.

　　Breathing heavily after hiding in the mouse-hole, the city mouse said, "Hugh! That was close." The country mouse was unable to understand the city mouse's behavior. However, on the next day and the following day, the same thing happened.

　　After a few days, the country mouse said to the city mouse, "I should go back to my house in the country. Even if I eat nothing but beans, I can live peacefully. Why don't you come with me to the country? It would be better than living here nervously like this."

　　The city mouse was so embarrassed that he could not do anything. The country mouse came back home and never went back to the city.

　　：A Bundle of Sticks

　　There once lived three greedy brothers in a town. Everyday, three brothers fought to get more things. One day, their father called them out to reason with them, "Sons, stop fighting with each other."

　　However, they still remained greedy. After thinking deeply for a few days, the father came up with a good idea. The father gathered his three sons to express his dying wish.

　　"I will leave all my assets to one of you who can break off this bundle of sticks." Every son shouted out that he could do it, competing with one another. "That is easy." "Give it to me." The father handed a very large bundle of wooden sticks to them.

　　The oldest son tried hard to break the bundle off. Nevertheless, the wooden sticks were unbreakable.

　　The second son snorted at his older brother and challenged in breaking the bundle. He was unable to do it, either. Then, the youngest son came forward. But, the result was the same.

　　Then, the father divided the bundle into three sets and passed them to each son. "Well, try to break them now." The three sons could break them easily. Then, a smile emerged on their faces.

　　The father tenderly advised them, "There is nothing you cannot do if the three of you stand together. Help one another until you die." The three sons shed tears because they were moved by the father's advice.
