1. Queen of Arabia and Three Sheiks
Maura, who like to be thought of as the most beautiful and powerful queen of Arabia,
had many suitors. One by one she discarded them, until her list was reduced to just
three sheiks. The three sheiks were all equally young and handsome. They were also
rich and strong. It was very hard to decide who would be the best of them.

One evening, Maura disguised herself and went to the camp of the three sheiks. As
they were about to have dinner, Maura asked them for something to eat. The first
gave her some left over food. The second Sheik gave her some unappetizing camels
tail. The third sheik, who was called Hakim, offered her some of the most tender and
tasty meat. After dinner, the disguised queen left the sheiks camp.
The following day, the queen invited the three sheiks to dinner at her palace. She
ordered her servant to give each one exactly what they had given her the evening
before. Hakim, who received a plate of delicious meat, refused to eat it if the other
two sheiks could not share it with him.

This Sheik Hakims act finally convinced Queen Maura that he was the man for her.
Without question, Hakim is the most generous of you she announced her choice to
the sheiks. So it is Hakim I will marry.

know more about the big animal and the small animal.

After the man went home, the tiger spoke to the buffalo; you are so big and strong.
Why do you do everything the man tells you? The buffalo answered; oh, the man is
very intelligent.
The tiger asked; can you tell me how intelligent he is?. No, I cant tell you, said
the buffalo; but you can ask him
So the next day the tiger asked to the man; Can I see your intelligence?. But the
man answered; it at home. Can you go and get it? asked the tiger. Yes said the
man; but I am afraid you will kill my buffalo when I am gone. Can I tie you to a
tree?

3. Blind Listening

A stupid man was sent by his father to sell salt. He first went to a mining area but
nobody there wanted his salt. When he returned home, his father told him that if he
had helped the miners to dig, they would have bought his salt.
The man next went to a house where a wedding was taking place. There he dug a
huge hole. This made the people angry and they chased him away. When he returned
home, his father told him that if he had beaten a drum and danced instead, the
people there would have bought salt from him.
Then, he went to a village where there happened to be a fire. Rushing to the place, he
started drumming and dancing, only to be thrown out by the people. His father told
him that he should have poured water on the fire instead, if he wanted to sell salt
there.
In the next place he went to, a couple were fighting with each other. The foolish man
poured a bucketful of water on them, again to be chased away. His father later told
him that he should have tried to settle the quarrel, in which case they would have
bought salt from him.
In the final event, the man saw two bulls fighting with each other. He stepped in to
stop the fight and was gored to death by angry bulls.
4. Money Isnt Everything
Donald, Daisy, Huey, Louie and Dewey all went to visit Uncle Scrooge one cold
autumn day. They knocked at the door and had to wait a long time before all the bolts
were undone. Even then Uncle Scrooge looked very suspicious, as if they were Beagle
Boys in disguise. The old miser was very surprised to see them all.

"Well, well. I suppose you'd better come in," he croaked at the door.
"Have you got a sore throat, Great- Uncle Scrooge?" chirped Louie.

"Don't be cheeky, Louie!" scolded Daisy.

"Stuff and nonsense!" croaked
Uncle Scrooge. "I have got a sore throat! The young lad's right."
"Sorry to hear that, Uncle," said Donald sympathetically. "Should I send Dewey out
to get you some cough
drops?"
"No. They cost too much money nowadays," complained the old miser. "I'd rather
suffer the tickle in my throat."
"You don't seem very happy, Uncle Scrooge," soothed Daisy.
"Mind your own business!" snapped Uncle Scrooge.
"Poor old Great-Uncle Scrooge," chirped Dewey, who had jumped up to sit on his
Great-Uncle's knee.
"What do you meanpoor Great- Uncle Scrooge!" chuckled Uncle Scrooge. "I've got
more money than Fort Knox."
"What I meant," explained Dewey, "was that I had a sore throat too, and I hardly
have any money. But I bought some cough drops." With that Dewey pulled out his
box of cough drops and gave them to Uncle Scrooge.
"You can have my cough drops, Uncle," smiled Dewey, "because they cured my sore
throat."
Uncle Scrooge didn't know what to say. But one great big tear rolled down his face.
"Poor Great-Uncle Scrooge," echoed the triplets.
5. The Smartest Parrot
Once upon time, a man had a wonderful parrot. There was no other parrot like it. The
parrot could say every word, except one word. The parrot would not say the name of
the place where it was born. The name of the place was Catano.

The man felt excited having the smartest parrot but he could not understand why the
parrot would not say Catano. The man tried to teach the bird to say Catano however
the bird kept not saying the word.
At the first, the man was very nice to the bird but then he got very angry. You stupid
bird! pointed the man to the parrot. Why cant you say the word? Say Catano! Or I
will kill you the man said angrily. Although he tried hard to teach, the parrot would
not say it. Then the man got so angry and shouted to the bird over and over; Say
Catano or Ill kill you. The bird kept not to say the word of Catano.
One day after he had been trying so many times to make the bird say Catano, the
man really got very angry. He could not bear it. He picked the parrot and threw it
into the chicken house. There were four old chickens for next dinner You are as
stupid as the chickens. Just stay with them Said the man angrily. Then he continued
to humble; You know, I will cut the chicken for my meal. Next it will be your turn, I
will eat you too, stupid parrot. After that he left the chicken house.
The next day, the man came back to the chicken house. He opened the door and was
very surprised. He could not believe what he saw at the chicken house. There were
three death chickens on the floor. At the moment, the parrot was standing proudly
and screaming at the last old chicken; Say Catano or Ill kill you.
