Ans: One day a lion was sleeping in its cave. A mouse was playing nearby. While playing, the mouse came on the lion’s body. When it came on the lion’s ear, the lion woke up and became very angry. He wanted to catch the mouse with his paw and kill it.
The mouse was very scared. He said to the lion in a very polite tone, “Please don’t kill me. Please forgive me, my king. One day, perhaps, a time will come when I can be of use to you.”
Hearing this, the lion laughed and said, “Tell me, what other use can you be to me, being such a small creature? Still, I let you go. Whatever!”
A few days later, the lion suddenly got caught in a trap of hunters. Being caught in the trap, the lion started roaring loudly. Hearing that roar, the mouse ran there. Seeing the danger of the lion, he went to its ear and forbade it from roaring. Because those who had set the trap might come running after hearing the roar.
The mouse now started its work. He started cutting the rope of the trap with his teeth. Finally he freed the lion from the trap. After being freed, the lion thanked the mouse and said, “I despised you because you are small. You saved my life today. From today on, you are my dearest friend.”
Moral: We should not look down on the little ones, they can also do great things if given the opportunity.
