me," "Show me", said the tiger. "Follow me", said the fox. The fox

walked in the front and the tiger followed him in the forest. When

A big, strong lion was sleeping in the sun. A little mouse was playing

nearby. It ran here and there and between the lions paws. The lion

woke up and caught the mouse in his paw. The little mouse said, "Let

me go, please. I shall help you some day." The lion began to laugh, "I

am so big and you are so small. How can you help me? But anyway, I

will let you go." After a few days, the lion was caught in a net. It roared

and roared, but the net was too strong. The little mouse heard the lion

and ran to help him. It nibbled at the ropes of the net. The ropes began

to snap and soon the lion was free. "Thank you, little friend," said the
