The Fearful Rabbit
A fearful rabbit lived in the forest. He had many large and powerful friends. He was proud of his friends.

One day the rabbit heard the loud barking of the wild dogs. He was very scared. He decided to ask for help. He quickly went to his friend the deer. He said: "Dear friend, some wild dogs are chasing me. Can you chase them away with your sharp antlers?" The deer said: "This is right, I could. But now I am busy. Why don't you ask bear for help?"

The rabbit ran to the bear. "My dear friend you are very strong, please help me. Some wild dogs are after me. Please chase them away," he requested the bear. The bear replied: "I am sorry. I am hungry and tired. I need to find some food. Please ask the monkey for help."

The poor rabbit went to the monkey, elephant, goat and all his friends. But, nobody was ready to help him.

The rabbit them understood that he had to think of his own way out of being eaten by the wild dogs. He took a deep breath and then just before the dogs arrived, he quickly hid under a thick bush, where he lay very still, until the wild dogs went their way.

From that day forward he realized he could face dangers on his own.
