IN THE FOREST THERE WAS A BIG TREE

Deep in the Forest stood a very tall

tree with leafy branches spread out
like strong arms.
This tree was the home of a flock
of wild geese.

zeenat
In the tree top lived some geese

zeenat
Oneday the wise old geese noticed a
creeper growing at the foot of the tree.

Do you see
that creeper?
..Let us destroy
it.

Why must
we destroy
it?

zeenat
“My friends.”
.”.that little
creeper will soon
grow. As it creeps
up this tree, it will
become thick &
strong.”

“What of that ?”
..”What harm can
a creeper do us”.

zeenat
“Don't you see? “

..“with the help of

that creeper, it
will be possible
for someone to
climb this tree. A
hunter can come
up & kill us all.”

“Well there's no
hurry.”
..“the creeper is
very small. It
would be a pity
to destroy it
now.”

zeenat
“Destroy the
creeper while it is
still young"." Now
it is tender & you
can cut it easily.
Letter it will
become hard &
you will not be
able to cut it

“We'll
see, we'll
see.”

zeenat
 As the creeper grew, it began winding it's
way up the tree.
Stronger & stronger it become, until it was
as strong as a thick rope.
One morning when the geese had gone out
in search of food, a hunter came to the forest.

“so this is
where the
wild gees
live”.
“ When
they come
back in the
evening, I
shall catch
them”.

zeenat
The hunter climbed up
the tree with the help of the
Creeper & Spread his net there.

I will come tomorrow

morning to take the
geese .

zeenat
 In the evening, the gees returned home. They did
not notice the net. As they flew into the tree & trapped.
They struggle hard to get out, but could not.
“ Help! He…l…p!
“We are caught in the
hunter's net. Oh! What
shall we do?”

“Don't make a
fuss now,” Long
ago I told you to
destroy the
creeper, but you
did not. Now see
what has
happened.
Tomorrow
morning the
hunter will come
back & kill all”.

zeenat
..
 “ We were
foolish”.
..“We are very
sorry we did
not listen to
you. Please tell
us what to do”.

“Then listen
carefully.”
..“When the hunter
comes you must
all pretend to
dead. Just lie still.
The hunter will not
harm dead birds.
He will throw us to
the ground.”
when last of us
has thrown down,
we must quickly
get up & fly away.

zeenat
 In the morning the hunter came to the tree &
Climbed up. He looked at the gees in the net.

“They are all dead”, he muttered to himself.

He threw them out of the net one by one.
The birds lay Still until the last one had been thrown.
Then , all at once, they got up, flapped their wings &
flew away.

The hunter was taken by surprise.

So if our Parents & Teacher tell
us to do on time. We have to do
according to them , if we don't do
according to them then we will suffer
like the Geese. zeenat
Tomorrow morning when the
hunter comes,don’t
move.Pretend you are dead till
the hunter throws all of you
out of the net. O.K.

zeenat
The geese pretended to be
dead.The hunter thought the
geese were dead and one by
one threw all the geese out of
the net.When all the geese were
out of the net ,the old geese
said- “Fly together”.

zeenat

saved themselves from the
hunter.
