A CLEVER MOUSEDEERYEAR 5M 2016
Narrator: One day, Mousedeer went to the river to drink some
water. He wanted to make sure that Crocodile was not waiting underwater to eat him. Mousedeer had an idea.
Mousedeer: (speaks loudly so crocodile hears) I wonder if the water’s warm. I’ll put my leg in and find out.
Narrator: Mousedeer didn’t put in his leg. Instead, he picked up a stick with his mouth and put one end of it into the water.
Crocodile: (grabs the stick and pull it underwater) Chomp!
Mousedeer: Ha! Ha! Ha! Silly crocodile! Don’t you know a stick
from a leg? Bye!
Narrator: The next day, Mousedeer went back to the river. He saw a log floating in the river. He knew Crocodile looked like a log when he floated in the water.
Mousedeer: (to himself, but loud and clear) If that log is really
crocodile, it won’t talk. But if it’s really just a log, it will tell me.
Crocodile: (loudly) I’m really just a log.
Mousedeer: Ha! Ha! Ha! A log can’t talk!
