1e. Why is the Donkey Known as a Fool?


Mr Donkey was busy eating grass.



Just then Mr Dog came and said, “Dark clouds are coming. It’s going to rain heavily. A flood can come. You are BIGGER than me. I am SMALLER than you. Let me climb on your back.”

Mr Donkey nodded and Mr Dog hopped on TOP of his back.



Miss Cat was watching all this from FAR.



Miss Cat came and said to both of them, “Dark clouds are NEAR. It’s going to rain heavily. A flood can come. Mr Dog is BIGGER than me and Mr Donkey is BIGGER than Mr Dog. So it means that I am the SMALLEST. Let me climb on your backs.”

Both of them nodded and Miss Cat climbed above them.



Just then Miss Hen came and said to all three of them, “Dark clouds are NEAR. It’s going to rain heavily. A flood can come. Miss Cat is bigger than me. And Mr Dog is bigger than Miss Cat. And Mr Donkey is the BIGGEST. So it means that I am the SMALLEST. Let me climb on your backs.”

All three of them nodded and Miss Hen climbed on the top.



After a few minutes under the weight of all the animals, Mr Donkey asked himself, “Is this why I am called a fool?”
