Slow and Steady Wins the Race/ The Race between the Hare and the Tortoise
A hare is a very speedy animal. He can run very fast. But a tortoise moves very slowly. Once upon a time a hare was very proud of his speed and cut a joke at a tortoise. Once the tortoise challenged (শ্রেষ্ঠত্ব প্রমাণের জন্য প্রতিদ্বন্দ্বিতা করা) the hare and invited him to run a race with him. The hare who was very proud of his speed said to the tortoise, "Listen friend tortoise, you are simply going to waste
your time and my time as well. You know my speed. To beat you to me is as easy as taking some tender grass from the field." The tortoise in return said, "I know your speed but there is still something which I know but you don't know." However,they both went to a fox and asked him to be the judge of their contest. The fox agreed and on an appointed day they met at crossroads. Finally the unequal race
began. The hare, from the beginning started running at a top speed and soon left the tortoise far behind. Crossing almost half of the distance the hare looked back. There was no sign of the tortoise around. the hare smiled and said to himself, "I am really a fool. Why should I run so fast in the hot sun with the slow, old tortoise?I will start again when the tortoise will catch up, before that let me have a rest." So thinking he lay down to have a rest under a shady (R) tree. But, as he was little tired, soon fell asleep (T). The tortoise on the other hand went along his slow but steady way. He never stopped nor looked back and at last passed the proud hare and reached the finishing spot well ahead of the hare. The hare knowing not when he fell asleep, awoke with a start and looking back found no sign of the tortoise. Still satisfied with himself, he started running. But on reaching the finishing spot, he saw the tortoise gossiping with the fox, the judge of the race.
However, the proud hare admitted his defeat and requested the tortoise to tell
him on which thing he capitalized as he said before the race.Then the tortoise said, "You should know friend: Pride goes before a fall and slow and steady wins the race."

Where There is a Will, There is a Way
It was a summer day and a crow became very thirsty. It began to move here and
there in search of drinking water but in vain. The crow did not lose hope. It, at last, noticed a jar at a little distance. It at once flew to it but there was a little water at the bottom of the jar. The water of the jar was not reachable to the crow.The crow was really dying for water. It did not lose hope even when it failed to reach the bottom of the jar with its bill. It looked around for help, thought over this or that but nothing worked. It said to itself, "If I give up trying I will simply die from thirst. So, I need to find out some ways and means to get water from the jar. At last I will have found water after a long search. Now managing to have water from the jar is my business. I must try a hundred times before I give in and die from thirst." This thought renewed its mental strength more than ever before.Suddenly a thought crept up into its mind and it began to fly around from one place to another in search of pieces of stones or brick, lumps of dry mud. It got many of them and brought all the pieces near the jar and then picked up the pieces one by one and dropped them into the jar.This time its plan worked. With a happy surprise it saw that the level of water was gradually rising up from the bottom. This result of its effort again
invigorated ( 4) its spirit and strength. It dropped all the pieces of stones and brick bats into the jar and finally the level of water rose high enough for it to touch it with its bill. The crow took a deep breath, heaved out a sigh of relief and drank the water with its hearts fill and succeeded in saving itself.

and made holes in the house. The mice also cut the clothes and bit the sleeping
children. They were always shrieking and squeaking in the house, which caused
much disturbance to the owner of the house.
One day, the owner brought a cat to get relief from that disturbance. The cat
started to hunt mice every day. The mice were afraid of it. They became anxious
for their safety and lives. They were looking for ways to remove their
inconvenience (fay). So, all the mice sat together in a conference. Many of them
put different opinions. But nothing was suitable. They failed to reach in a
decision. The meeting was on the verge of ending.
At that time, a young mouse stood up and asked permission to put his proposal.
All agreed. He said, "We will tie a bell around the cat's neck. So, we will
get warning when the cat comes. Then we can easily hide ourselves in safe place.
" All the mice greeted his proposal with applause.
An old mouse stood up and asked others to be calm. He said, "I also greet his
proposal as it is an excellent idea. But I have a question. Who will bell the cat?
" There was pin drop silence. They were looking at each other. There was nobody
who was brave enough to accomplish the task of belling the cat. The conference (1)
ended in smoke. Eventually the mice migrated themselves to another place.

equal, the monkey bit the larger part, put them on the scales again and found a

single drop of water in the house.
Bayazid remembered a stream () from where he could bring water. But it was far
from his house and was in one corner of the village. The night was quite dark.
Bayazid took the pitcher and went to fetch water from the stream. When he returned
with water, he found his mother in deep sleep. Bayazid thought that if he made
his mother awaken, she might feel disturbed. So, he decided to stand beside his
mother's bed with the glass of water. When she woke up, he would serve her with
the water.The whole night passed. Bayazid's mother opened eyes in the morning and saw her
son standing with a glass of water. Seeing that, her eyes became full of tears.
She took him in her arms with motherly affection and blessed him from the core
of her heart. Her blessings made him a great saint later.

Both of them had gangsters of their own, and they began to fight in the afternoon.
Many men were wounded, and were taken to the upazila hospital. Some others fled to
save themselves.
A complaint was filed to the village arbitrator (fy fool). The judge came to know
that the fight had originated from a quarrel of two small boys, and a girl named
Lina had witnessed it. She was summoned to the meeting, and she narrated the
whole happening. Now, it was clear that they had quarreled over a simple matter.
The arbitrator rebuked the two boys' fathers, and fined both of them with a good
amount of money. He also told them to teach their sons the value of tolerance.
He said, "A simple thing has ridiculously become a serious issue." While the
trial was going on, surprisingly the two boys were playing and having fun between
themselves.

There is a Treasure in the Field
Once there lived an old farmer. He had two sons. They were strong but lazy. Theyslept all day long in the shade. They did not bother to help their old father to
plough or water and cultivate the field. Just before he died, the farmer said to
his sons: "My dear sons, I have a secret, I always hid it from you. I was afraid
to tell you earlier lest you should waste the money hidden in my field. But now,
before I die, I have to tell you the truth." Soon after their father's death, the boys met together and argued: "Dad said that in the field there is a treasure, that if we dig it out, we will find it. Most
likely, the treasure is hidden close to the house, so that robbers might not easily
take it away. Come on! Let us begin our work!". The two sons took their spades and
started digging the field. They dug hard but could not find any treasure. The
field was well dug but the two sons were disappointed. Before leaving the field
they spread the seeds of melon (G). After a few days young plants grew and the
whole field looked nice. After a few months the field was full of melons. They
gathered the melons and sold them in the market. They earned a lot of money.
Now the sons realized that the melons were the treasure. From that day, they
started working hard in the field.

A Boy with Ready Wit
One sunny morning a boy of eleven years was tending cattle by the side of a railway
line. Suddenly he noticed that a small railway slipper was about to collapse. A
little while later, he remembered that a mail train was supposed to cross in about
half an hour. He was at a loss thinking about what to do. He discussed the matter
with his friends. But nobody could give an exact solution so that they can save
the next train to come immediately.
Suddenly a fantastic plan came into the mind of Ratan. Once he heard that by
showing something red, one can stop train. By his ready wit he put off his red
shirt and hoisted it in the air when he heard a train to come along the crack line.
He tried to attract the attention of the driver. Unbelievably the driver saw the
red shirt, of the boy and stopped the train just before the crack. The driver got
down from the train and noticed the line. All the passengers and the driver
praised the witty boy for whom all of them got a new life.
