A Clever Bird

A little bird played under a tree. A big grey cat saw it.
'' I must have that bird for my dinner'', the cat said. But the little bird was very
clever. It saw the grey cat and flew up into the tree.
''Good morning, Little Bird,'' said the cat.
''Good morning, Grey Cat,'' said the bird from the tree.
''Good news!'' said the cat.
''Good news? What news? asked the bird.
The cat said, ''Very good news! All the animals are now good friends! Come down
from the tree! Let us play together!''
But the little bird was very clever.
''Oh, yes! You are my friend. You like me and I like you. But from the tree I can
see the village!''
''And what do you see in the village?" asked the cat.
The bird said: " I see many dogs, and they are running here!"
''Oh, dogs!'', said the cat and wanted to run away.
''Don't run away!" said the bird. " The dogs know that all animals are friends''.
" They are village dogs, not town dogs. They do not know the news,'' said the cat
and ran away.
