Children's story

"I'm so hungry!" Rabbit Three mumbled."Me too," Rabbit Two chimed in."I'm even hungrier!" the tall Rabbit One also shouted. "We don't have a single carrot left. We have to go to the vegetable patch and pull some back," the smallest little rabbit reminded everyone."I'll go," said Rabbit Three, jumping up first and heading for the vegetable patch.

Big Bear loved eating fruit. He went to the market and bought a bag of strawberries, a bag of bananas, and a bag of apples. Carrying a basket full of fruit, Big Bear started walking home. Not far along the way, a hippopotamus beside the road was laying a foundation to build his house. He called out to Big Bear, "Hello, this stone is really heavy. Could you please come over and help me move it?"

Long, long ago, there was a terrible drought. The streams in the forest dried up, the springs ran dry, and the animals couldn't find any water to drink. They were suffering terribly.One day, Little Bear, Little Rabbit, Little Lion, and other animals gathered beneath a large tree, discussing how to find water. Suddenly, the big tree spoke: "Children, if you dig a well right beneath my roots, you'll find water to drink."

Grandma came back from the street and, as soon as she entered the door, called out, "My little darlings, I've bought you something wonderful!""What wonderful thing? Is it something delicious?" Little Calico Cat, Little Spotted Dog, and Little White Rabbit ran over to ask."Look!" Grandma said, holding up three toothbrushes. "From today on, you all must use these to brush your teeth!"

Princess Leina fell ill. The royal physicians were helpless. When the king asked his daughter what she desired, Leina said she wanted the moon from the sky. The king immediately summoned his chief minister, Chamberlain Zhang, and ordered him to find a way to pluck the moon from the heavens. Chamberlain Zhang pulled a scrap of paper from his pocket, glanced at it, and said, "I can procure ivory, blue puppies, insects made of gold, and even find giants and dwarves..." The king grew impatient, waved his hand, and said, "I don't want any blue puppies! You must get me the moon immediately." Chamberlain Zhang looked distressed, spread his hands, and said, "The moon is made of molten copper, 6,000 kilometers from the earth, and larger than the princess's room. This humble servant is truly powerless." Enraged, the king ordered Chamberlain Zhang to leave. Then he summoned the court mathematician. This master mathematician, bald on top with a pencil always tucked behind his ear, had served the king for forty years, solving countless difficult problems with ease. But this time, upon hearing the king's request, he repeatedly declined, saying, "The moon is as large as the entire kingdom, fastened to the sky with giant nails. I really have no way to take it down." Disappointed, the king waved the mathematician away.

"Well," said his wife, "I knew it—another new folly. What can I expect from him? Nothing but foolishness. The head of the household has thrown away the cow we lived on, and now we have nothing. And you've brought us another mouth to feed! You'd have been better off staying out in the snow with the good things in your sack!" If the little gray man hadn't rebuked her three times, the good wife would probably have continued. He said regret and blame wouldn't fill the pot, and the wisest thing was to go hunting for something to eat. Though it was night, with wind and snow, he went out immediately and soon returned with a fat sheep. "Here," he said, "slaughter this animal; don't let us starve." The farmer and his wife looked at the little gray man and his prey with suspicion. They realized this sudden bounty had been stolen from nearby. But in their hunger, they didn't care. Lawful or not, the sheep was quickly devoured. From that day on, prosperity came to the farmer's house, and his flock grew larger and larger. The farmer grew more confident than ever, believing he had truly won this bargain. He thought to himself that instead of the hundred cows he'd hoped for, it was better that God had sent him this little gray man who could provide sheep.

Today was the little squirrel's birthday, and her mother gave her a red bead as a gift. The little squirrel loved this bead so much that she kept it tucked in her arms, unwilling to take it out, afraid that someone might snatch it or she might lose it. One day, the little squirrel took her "precious bead" to the park to play. She was very happy because she had such a beautiful red bead. Sometimes she tossed the bead into the air, sometimes she played with it in her hands. While playing, she came to a small bridge. Suddenly, she accidentally dropped the bead, and it fell into the river below the bridge. The little squirrel couldn't swim and started crying loudly in distress. A little turtle happened to pass by, saw the squirrel crying, and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?" The little squirrel said sadly, "My bead fell into the river, but I can't swim!" After saying this, she cried even harder. Seeing how sad the squirrel was, the little turtle said, "Don't worry, I'll help you look for the bead in the river." Hearing this, the little squirrel stopped crying.

The fox failed to catch the white rabbit, and he never will. But once, the rabbit's situation was truly perilous. Here's how it happened: One day, the fox decided to use a trick he had once employed against a rattlesnake on the white rabbit. He gathered some tar, worked carefully, and soon fashioned a dummy figure. This dummy looked like a child, so the fox named it "Tar Baby." Then the fox took the Tar Baby and placed it by the roadside, hiding himself in the nearby bushes. Not long after, the white rabbit came along and saw the Tar Baby. The little figure sat alone by the path, wearing a hat. The rabbit wanted to speak to this shiny, comical little fellow. "Good morning!" the rabbit greeted first. "Lovely weather today, isn't it?" The Tar Baby said nothing, and the rabbit waited quietly. "How are you feeling today?" the rabbit asked. He waited a while longer, but the Tar Baby remained silent. "How are you, really? Are you deaf?!" the rabbit asked. "If you're deaf, I can speak louder." The Tar Baby still didn't answer, and the fox watched carefully from his hiding place. "You're terribly rude," said the rabbit. "If you don't take off your hat and say 'hello,' I'll give you a good punch as a lesson." The fox chuckled silently, but the Tar Baby stayed mute.

Once upon a time, there was a little pig named Guoguo. He was very ugly, with tiny eyes, big ears, and a snub nose. He went to play with a little squirrel, but the squirrel was so frightened upon seeing him that it jumped around in panic. He then went to play with a swan, but the swan mistook him for a monster and pecked him fiercely. Guoguo barely managed to escape. He returned home heartbroken and stayed indoors all day, refusing to go out. His mother asked him, "Why are you crying?" The little pig sobbed even louder: "Because I'm ugly, and no one wants to play with me." His mother said gently, "My dear, being ugly isn't a fault. As long as you热心ly help others, you will surely make friends."

On Sunday, the little rooster went to visit its good friend, the little duck. It walked to the riverside and saw a little fish swimming back and forth in the water. The little rooster said, "Hello, little fish!" The little fish replied, "Hello, little rooster! Where are you going?" "I'm going to play with the little duck!" After saying this, the little rooster added, "I have to go now, little fish! Goodbye!" "Goodbye, little rooster! Have fun!" said the little fish. The little rooster continued on its way. It reached a tree and saw a little dog playing in the shade. The little rooster said, "Hello, little dog!"
