A friendly butcher gave a dog a bone. The dog was running home with it
as fast as he could go. Soon he came to the river. He started walking

thought what he saw was another dog. And this other dog was carrying a
bigger bone.
If he had stopped to think he would have known better. But he did not
think. He dropped his bone into the water. Then he jumped at the dog he
saw in the river.

ANSWER:

The Dog and the Bone
A friendly butcher gave a dog a bone. The dog was running home with it
as fast as he could go. Soon he came to the river. He started walking across
the bridge. But he stopped halfway to look down. He saw his reflection in the
water. It was like looking into a mirror. But the greedy dog thought what he
saw was another dog. And this other dog was carrying a bigger bone.
If he had stopped to think he would have known better. But he did not
think. He dropped his bone into the water. Then he jumped at the dog he
saw in the river. But there was no other dog. He began to sink. He had to
swim very hard to reach the shore. He finally made it out of the river. He was
very sad about the good bone he had lost. He saw what a silly dog he had
been.
It is very foolish to be greedy.
