Rohan's fables- stories with morals.

The Foolish Villager

One day the lions were fighting the villagers in Africa. One of them survived. He was so relieved that he told everybody. They were amazed. So they had a big feast. He was so pleased he told everyone how it happened.

But he thought I was smart and survived. So maybe I can steal the lion's food.
The next morning he woke up at 3 am. He sneaked into the lions territory. The lions burst with rage. When everyone woke up they could not find the villager. They learned of a valuable lesson.

Moral: Don't expect everything that you want will come.


The Mean Snake

One day there was a mean snake. Whenever the frogs came by his hole, he sang “foolish frog, foolish frog, you came to my hole , you thought I was a mole. Well, I’ll swallow you whole.” And he did. He never let the frogs live. Because only if they gave did a favor for him, he would he let them live. But none of the frogs could think of one.

One day a wise bug walked down the road. A frog saw him and said “Yummy yum.” “Please spare my life and I will get rid of your problems”, said the bug.

So the frog whispered something into the bug’s ear. The bug walked to the snake and said, “Oh dear snake, please come out. The snake slithered out of his hole. The bug said, “I will lead you to the frog’s village. So the snake followed him. Bite into this rock, said the bug and it will lead you to the frog’s village. “

So the snake bit on the rock which was actually a lion’s face. He roared in pain and ate the snake. And the bug and the frogs lived happily ever after.

Moral: What you do will come back to you.


How a mouse can dodge three animals

One day a mouse was walking by. A bear caught it. He was about to throw the mouse in the river when the mouse chewed his claws and the bear growled with pain and dropped the mouse on the grass.

Just then an eagle flew by. He said, “Ha, this mouse is weak. He laughed and laughed but then he could not find the mouse! Because the mouse hid in the forest since he was so little.

The eagle looked and looked but the mouse was nowhere to be found.

Just then a fox rambled by. He said, “Ha, he could not even escape a house if it was on fire. “ The mouse ran in a hole and the fox tried to get in there but he could not. So he went looking for some other prey.

All of the three animals chased after the mouse. The mouse jumped through the eagle’s legs and the bear bumped into the eagle, jumped off the bear’s head and right through the fox’s claws. They all fell in the river. And the mouse , well, he just sat there laughing.

Moral: If you’re small does not mean you’re weak at all.

Through the far lands ( a poem )

On a horse clip clop clip clop through the grass, jumping, fighting big beasts,
riding a crocodile, swishing through the river, and eating some yummy feasts.

Riding on a dragon, soaring through clouds, breathing out fire, rising higher.

Riding an ostrich, zooming through the trees, eating honey from the bees.

Sleeping on a bed, your imagination is tired, sleeping sleeping and .......riding a horse, riding a crocodile, riding on a dragon, riding on an ostrich and saying good night on your comfy cosy bed.

The far lands are sleeping, so should you, but don't forget
you can play in your dreams too.

Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh !!!

Once there was a boy named Gless. He loved to sleep. But one problem. He though there was monsters in his room. He went to bed and he heard a squeeeeak! Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!! He yelled. he ran out of his room, ran around the kitchen and jumped so high he jumped over his dad who was reading the newspaper. "Be quiet", there are no monsters. He went back to bed when a claw rose up above his head. He turned on the light and there was a monster. Aahhhhhhhhhhhhh, he yelled. The monster yelled Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!

He dashed around Gles's room and bumped into the door. Then Gless's dad came up. What's all the noise he said. As soon as he looked he yelled Aahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. The monster yelled Aaaahhhhhhhh!! The monster jumped up, banged the ceiling and fell flat on the floor. Then Gless's mom came up the stairs. "What's all that noise" she said. Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!! yelled Gless's mom. The monster yelled Aaaaahhhhhhhhh!! Aaaahhhhhhhhhh!! Aaaaahhhhhh!!!

The monster ran downstairs, ran through the door, ran into a spaceship, blasted himself into space and zoomed and zoomed and zoomed and he yelled "Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh !!!!!

And Gless was not afraid anymore. But maybe just a little he was afraid of spiders. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

This is that and that is this

Once there was a boy called Cesterfur. He was very curious. But not like Curious George. Instead whatever he saw he would ask questions. His nickname was That This. His nickname was That this because he always asked a lot of questions. Once he was strolling past a big tree. The big tree had lots of leaves. He asked Was this here for a long time or does it get shorter each time it gets older. Does it get hot form the sun or does it get very very cold. His mom opened her mouth to answer but he interrupted and said "Do all fruits grow on trees or just vegetables? " Do all plants grow into trees? Or just some? His mom thought all night and she finally got it.

She got so much books about lions, tigers, mammals, reptiles, sharks, whales, plants and trees and many more. But one teensy weensy problem. Cesterfur loved to run. So his mom each time got him that book when he asked a question about it. He grew up to love books but there was one teensy weensy weensy problem. Cesterfur wasn't good at math. And he had a billion math sheets to complete. So I leave off there and don't ask me any questions like you know who.

The End.

Hoppy the Happy Frog

Slipppery. Dippery. Glippery. Slimy. Hoppy. Happy. Slappy. Sleepy. Jumpy. Bumpy. Hoppy. Hoppy is my friend. He jumps place to place. He's cute like a newt. I was walking when I caught a frog. Yes, it's Hoppy. Slippery, dippery, gippery, jippery, pippery, Hoppy. I hopped with him until I let him go. I made a swimming pool for him and a fort with my belongings. He loved his fort. I don't know why. But he had fun with me. We played and danced until it was dark. I let him go. It was sad. I saw him hop and swim away. But he was happy in his home. He wasn't poisonous. He was cute.
The end
(Rohan's encounter with a frog he caught on hi camping trip at Algonquin. He adopted Hoppy (the frog) and they spent a couple of happy hours together. Hoppy was a leopard frog.)

The Magic Bike

One day Odum got a bike. He wanted to ride it. He went on the bike and then as soon as he got on the bike the bike zoomed into the air. Then when he pushed the pedals he found that he was flying. The he went down on the ground. Then he went back home ate his supper and went to bed.

After he went to be he woke up in the morning and rided his bike to school. And then as soon as he got on the bike his school was right next to him. He went into school and after school he went back home. After his lunch he rode his bike again. But there was a problem, when he got on his bike it would not budge. When he was pedaling forward it went backwards. Then he pushed backwards and it zoomed. It zipped through traffic lights, it banged into trees, and even woke up a bear. As he walked home something happened. The bike slowly came out of his closet and it moved closer to the door and … woooshhhhh… It rode off. Odum ran after it but it went faster and faster until the bike went up a building. He climbed a ladder up the building but the bike rode down the stairs and went out of the building. Odum jumped down and tried to catch the bike. The bike turned around and then chased odum. Odum ran and ran and ran and ran. Then the wheel went POP. The bike went flying into the air and landed down with a big THUD. Then fireworks wen t flying into the sky and Odum never got something like a bike ever again.


But maybe he would get a scooter.
