狮子和老鼠 The Lion and the Mouse in English _ Story

“The Lion and the Mouse” 

《狮子�和老鼠�》

Once upon a time, there lived a lion who ruled the forest. 

One day after eating his meal, the lion felt asleep under a tree. A little mouse saw him and thought it would be fun to play on him. He began running up and down the sleeping lion. He ran up the tail and slid down the tail. 

The lion woke up angrily with a loud roar. He grabbed the mouse with his huge paw. The mouse struggled but could not escape. The lion opened his big jaws to swallow him. The mouse was very scared. 

The Mouse: "Oh king, I am very scared. Please don't eat me. Forgive me this time. Please let me go. I shall never forget it and maybe one day I can help you. "

The lion was so amused by the idea of the Mouse being able to help him that he lifted up his paw and let him go. 

The Mouse: "Thank you king. I will never forget your kindness."

The Lion: "You are lucky my friend that I jsut eaten. Now go but don't mess with me again. Or I will make a meal of you."

Few days later, the lion was roaming the jungle. Hunters set a trap to catch the lion. The hunters hid behind the tree waiting for the lion to approach the trap. As he did, the hunters pulled the ropes and caught him in the net.
