Peter and the Wolf
 
Once upon a time, there lived an old man with his grandson in their garden.
 
"Peter, you must never leave the garden to go to the meadow because there is a wolf hiding in the forest that will eat you!" said the grandfather.
 
Peter promised, but on a beautiful sunny day, he couldn't resist going for a walk in the meadow. So he left the garden.
 
Soon, Peter saw a bird flying in the air near him so he asked, "Did you see the wolf today, my friend?"
 
The bird replied, "Nope, but you better warn the duck following behind you because she wants to go for a swim in that pond in the meadow."  
 
As they were talking, a cat jumped out from behind the bird and tried to catch it in the air. "Watch out, bird!" yelled Peter.
 
The little bird soon noticed the cat from behind then flew safely up higher into the air. "Thank you Peter, thank you," said the bird gratefully.  
 
Later, Peter's grandfather saw him wandering around in the meadow so he yelled for his return. Peter returned, but left all his animal friends in the meadow.
 
 
Meanwhile, the wolf showed up and started to chase after the bird, the cat and the duck in the meadow.
 
The bird and the cat escaped successfully, but the duck was too slow so the wolf caught her and swallowed her whole.
 
Peter saw the whole act from his garden and was stunned. But soon, he came up with a great plan to save the duck.
 
He asked the bird to fly around the wolf's head to make him very dizzy.
 
When in the wolf's ignorance, Peter tangled the wolf's tail with a rope and caught him.
 
Then, they heard the duck singing happily and stamping her feet inside of the wolf because she knew she was saved.
 
 
In no time, Peter gave the wolf to the village people and they sent him to the zoo.
