Looking for Bear

Fox and Hare were looking for Bear. Hare looked behind the tree, while Fox started to run while looking. Snake said: “What are you doing?” Fox answered: “We are looking for Bear.” They let Snake help looking. Hedge-hog was also looking for Bear. He helps as well. Mouse was playing. Fox said: “Can you help us look for Bear?” “Yes!” said Mouse. They were running so fast. And then they saw Bear. Bear said: “Stop!” He told them he had been there for a long time. Snake, Fox, Hare, Hedge-hog and Mouse looked surprised. Fox said: “But we were looking everywhere!” Everybody had to laugh. They laughed so hard that they all fell over, except for Hare. He was not pleased and said: “We have been looking everywhere for nothing!”

And the judge was a Cat called Billy.They had to run from a big old Baniyan tree called Banny , to the river bank where a frog named Croaky lived. When Billy says “ready …1..2..3 “, the race started . Michel was fastest among his friends. So he could overtake all of themHe was very proud that he can run very fast.So with overconfidence ,he started running and stepped on a stone and got hurt.Unfortunately he lost his pace and could not run. Now Ronny was the fastest and Swifty was  angry and tried to scare him away. Ronny got scared and he ran away back and at present Swifty was leading .Now Poky got angry and tried to poke Swifty with his sharp pines to scare Swifty away and  win the race.

THE SKY IS FALLING


A Squirrel was once playing in the jungle. Suddenly he heard a loud sound and started running. On the way he met a hare, who asked him "What was the matter "?  The squirrel told him that the sky is falling and therefore he is running from here. Hearing this the hare also started running .The snake was passing near by. After hearing this he too started crawling. On the way they met Porcupine and a rat, they also joined the run. Finally they came across a bear, on seeing such a large number of animals running together stopped them and asked why they were running? They all answered that the sky is falling and told him also to run. The bear was wise.  He asked them who told them to run? Every body pointed towards the squirrel and the squirrel said that he heard a loud noise and he thought that the sky is falling and started running, when the bear heard this, he realized that It is not the sky, that is going to fall, it is the squirrel who mistook some noise similar to the noise of sky. He told all of them not to worry and go back to jungle.
