A story about drawing pictures of a tale I want everyone to know
I love fairy tales, so here is the story of "The Greedy Dog" that I want everyone to know.
The dog was holding a very large bone in its mouth and looked very happy.
When it reached the middle of the bridge, the dog became curious about the sound of the flowing river.
It leaned over the bridge and peeked down at the river.
looked closely at the water's surface, to its surprise, there was
a dog that looked just like it, holding a bone just as big as its own.
The dog stared at it,
and the bone that the dog in front of it had
seemed
much better than the one it had,
so it thought
about how it could steal it.
("Alright, I'll just give a loud bark to scare it and steal the bone...")
let out a loud
"Woof!!"
at the dog in front of it. At that moment...
The bone was gone from the dog's mouth, and the bone of the dog in front of it had also vanished.
had just cherished the bone I already had...
In the middle of the bridge, the dog could do nothing but sit there feeling dejected.
The End
How does this story appear to you all?
I think that having different interpretations and feelings depending on the reader
is one of the ways to enjoy fairy tales.
There are many books in bookstores and libraries where you can read interesting stories like this,
so please try reading them with your children or family.
Next time, I will try drawing pictures for a story that is a little less well-known,
so I hope you will look forward to that.
I love picture books that are easy to read but have deep meanings to feel.
