The lion and the mouse

Once there was a big forest. The lion was the king of the forest. One day he was having his afternoon nap. A little young mouse was playing near him. She jumped on his back and the lion woke up. He caught the mouse in his paw. The mouse said to him, “Oh, please, let me go. I will help you one day.” The lion let her go and said, “You are to small to help me. Go away!”

One day the lion was crying in a hunter’s net. The mouse heard him and came to help. She cut the net with her sharp little teeth. The lion was free and full of joy. He said, “thank you, my little friend! You saved my life!”

The smallest friend can be the strongest help.
