The Girl Who Cried Wolf 🐺🚨
This is part of our Aesop’s Fables series, where we build upon Aesop’s Fables, teaching kids what they mean and what wisdom we can learn from them! 🌈📚 Today’s story follows Sally, a playful shepherd girl who learns an important lesson about honesty.
Sally's Silly Tricks! 😄🎭
Sally was a girl who worked as a shepherd after school. She had to guard her sheep from dangerous beasts like lions, wolves, and leopards. 🐑🦁 But every day, sitting among the sheep while they bleated and munched grass felt boring! 😩
“I need some fun!” Sally said. So, she decided to play a trick. She stood on a rock and shouted, “Help me! Help me! I have seen an evil wolf about!” 📣🐺
Everyone rushed to her side, worried and frightened. But when they arrived, they found Sally laughing instead of a snarling wolf! 😆 They shook their heads and said, “You’re a naughty girl! That trick was very mean!”
The Fun Turns Sour! 😬😱
Sally just kept on laughing, thinking it was all a big joke. But soon, she wanted to play another trick. She cried out once more, “Everybody! Come at once! There is a wolf nearby!” 📢🐺
People came running, weapons ready to protect her, but all they found was silly Sally giggling! They got mad and shook their fists, leaving her alone. “What fun!” she thought, not realizing her tricks were causing trouble. 🙈
Later that night, as the sun went down, Sally heard a growl and saw two evil eyes in the darkness! “A wolf!” she screamed. “This time I am not lying!” 😱👀
But nobody believed her. “It’s just another trick,” they said, deciding to ignore her cries. Sally was left all alone with the real wolf!
