7. “The Sly Fox”
The fox is a wild animal that looks like a dog.
It has a pointed nose and ears , a bushy tail
and thick fur. The fox is said to be a very
clever animal in fooling others. The wolf is a
wild animal that looks like a dog too. It has
thick fur and pointed muzzle. Wolves and
foxes hunt other animals. Sometimes, they
end up hunting each other.

8. One night, a fox met a wolf in the forest. The wolf was very
hungry and in a terrible mood. So the wolf said to the fox.
“Don’t move! I’m going to eat you this minute.”
As he spoke, the wolf backed the fox up against a tree. The fox
realized she could not run away.
“I have to use my wits instead of my legs,” she said to herself.
“I could have been a good dinner for you last year. I was then
very fat and plump. But I had three babies then. Now I’m slim
and not delicious.”
“I don’t care if you are plump or not. I don’t care how many
babies you have. I’m going to eat you right now!”

9. The wolf began closing in on the fox.
“Stop!, the fox shouted. “ Look how skinny I am. I ran off all my
fat looking for my babies. But I know a place where you can find
something good and fat.”
Wolf backed off and listened to Fox.
“There is a well near here. In the bottom of it is a big round
piece of meat. You can get it instead of eating me. Shall we go?”
The wolf trotted off after the fox, making sure that she could not
run away. They came upon a well.
“See for yourself, what a fat juicy piece of meat is at the bottom
of this well. I wanted to get it for my babies. But you can have
it.”

10. Inside the well was a delicious looking yellow
round piece of meat. Above the well, the
moon shone bright and clear. The wolf
leaned over the well wondering how to get
the piece of meat. The fox jumped up quickly
and pushed the wolf down into the deep well.
“ I’m a sly old mother Fox!” Fox said to
herself.
