Rabbit And Monkey

One day, a young rabbit meets with a young monkey. They quickly become good friends. The monkey invites the rabbit to visit his house. However, as the young rabbit doesn't know how to climb the tree, so he can't go to monkey's house.

The young rabbit goes home and asks his mummy, "Mummy, can I learn climbing tree from monkey?"

"No you can't dear. Our legs are short and are not designed to climb tree."

But the young rabbit is not convinced. He thinks that with his persevearance, everything is possible. So he goes to see the young monkey and asks the monkey to teach him climbing.

After a few months, the young rabbit can climb up the tree already.

"Let's go to your house today, Monkey!" says the rabbit.

So both of them climb up the tree, to go to monkey's house. However, they accidently step on a broken branch and fall down from the tree.

The young monkey manages to catch to another branch with his long tail. But the rabbit falls to the ground and bumps his head.

"Are you ok?" asks the monkey.

"Who are you? Who am I?" the rabbit has lost his memory.

"You are my friend. you can climb tree like a monkey," says the monkey.

Since then, the rabbit climbs trees like monkey. His legs become longer and longer. Even though he doesn't have long tail, he can use his long ears to swing from swing like monkeys.

Fox With No Tail

One day, while a fox is finding food in the jungle, a lion jumps out from bush and tries to catch him. Luckily the fox manages to escape from the lion. However, his tail is bit off by the lion.

The fox feels really embarrassed for not having any tail now. So he thinks of an idea to solve his problem.

The fox then goes to tells other foxes that, "The King in town is looking for pets to stay in the palace. You will get eandless food supply if you are chosen. However, the King doesn't like the long-bushy tail animals."

So in order to become King's pet and get endless food supply, all the foxes cut off their tails.

After a few days, the fox announces that, "I heard that the King has chosen a chimpanzee to be His pet. I feel sorry that all of us have not been chosen."

In his heart, the fox is happy that all the foxes have no tails now. No one will laugh at him. 

Walking Tree

There is a young tree "living" near a field. Every evening, a lot of animals come to the field and play together. They play hide-and-seek, jumping-rope, catch-the-demon, etc. The tree always wishes that he can walk and join them for the games.

One night, a fairy passing by the tree. The tree immediately stops the fairy, "Can I make a wish from you?"

"Yes, you may."

The tree wishes for walking ability.

The next day, the tree can walk around with his roots. He is now very happy, he walks to the river to drink a lot of water as it has not been raining for a few days. He then walks into the jungle to say hi to other trees.

However, the other trees don't feel want to be friends with him.

"You are not one of us, go away!"

The walking tree feels sad, "Never mind, I can play with animals."

So the tree goes to the field to play with animals. The animals are shocked and scared to see a walking tree. The animals pick up some stones and throw at the tree and ask him to go away.

The tree is really lonely now, he has no friends. Suddenly he sees a mummy bird flies to him, and carries away all the baby birds from the bird nest.

"Where are you going? You have been staying with me for few months. Don't leave!" begs the tree.

The mummy bird says, "I can't stay on a walking tree. I'm afraid after going out to search for food, you will walk away to other place that I can't find my way home. Bye bye!"

Rabbit & Parrot

One day, a rabbit sees a colourful parrot flying in the sky.

"Wow, the parrot is so colourful. How I wish I can be like that," thinks the white rabbit.

He goes home to tell his mummy what he has seen. His mummy says, "The white colour suits us better. It helps to protect us from being seen by others from far."

But the rabbit still dreams of having colourful fur. One day, he sees a few bottles of paints in a rubbish bin, thrown by human. The paints happen to be very colourful - red, green, purple and blue paints.

The rabbit is so happy that he begins to paint his fur with the colourful paints. After finish painting, he immediately goes home, to give his mummy a surprise.

Unfortunately, there is a lion who manages to see the colourful rabbit from far distance. The lion quickly catches the rabbit, washes him in the river and eats him.

Monkey & Mirror

One day, a monkey picks up a piece of mirror from a field not far from a village.

"It must be someone from the village dropped it," thinks the monkey.

The monkey looks into the mirror and sees a handsome face (he thinks) reflects on it. Since then, the monkey keeps looking at his own image on the mirror.

Mummy monkey keeps scolding the monkey but he just doesn't listen.

"Don't look at mirror when you eat!"

"Don't look at mirror when you bathe!"

"Don't look at mirror when you swing on the tree!"

In the end, the mummy monkey is so angry that she throws the mirror into a river when the monkey is sleeping.

When the monkey wakes up and knows what his mother has done, he quickly goes to the river, tries to pick up the mirror. But the river is too deep and the monkey doesn't know how to swim.

The monkey is very sad and cries beside the river. After crying for few hours, he suddenly look into the water and sees his own reflection again. The monkey is so happy and he just sits there for few hours.

The sky is getting dark and a thunder storm is coming. But the monkey is still there.

The heavy rain begins to drop down, but the monkey is still there.

Finally, the river floods and washes away the monkey, who later is drowned in the river.

One day, the farmer comes to pluck some ripe apples. The apple tree is angry with the farmer, "How can you take away my apples!" But of course the apple tree doesn't have mouth to tell to the farmer.

The apple tree feels his right has been ignored as birds/worms/animals/human just take his apples without askig him. So he stops to bear any apple since then.

The farmer is putting more fertilizer on the apple tree, as he wonders why the apple tree stops bearing apples for long time. After two years of trying, the farmer finally gives up.

The next day, the stubborn apple tree sees the farmer comes to him with an axe...
