The Story of the Rude Frog
Once upon a time, there was a little frog named Gustav. He lived by a peaceful pond in a forest where all the other animals were kind and helpful to each other. But Gustav wasn’t like the others. He was known as the rudest frog in the whole forest.
One day, when Samuel the squirrel dropped his nut into the water, Gustav jumped forward and said:
”Great job, clumsy! Should I fish it out for you to show you how it’s done?”
When Frida the bird tried to build her nest in a tree near the pond, Gustav sat on a rock and shouted:
”That looks like a dump! Are you moving in there, or is it just temporary?”
His comments made all the animals sad, but no one dared to say anything to him. Finally, the wisest animal in the forest, Ursula the owl, decided to teach Gustav a lesson.
One evening, under the bright moonlight, Ursula gathered all the animals by the pond. Gustav sat in the middle, as he loved being the center of attention. Ursula said:
”Gustav, we’re going to play a game. Everyone will say something they like about you, and you’re not allowed to say a word.”
The animals were nervous, but they began to speak.
”You’re really good at jumping,” said Knut the rabbit.
”You’re actually pretty funny sometimes,” said Ronja the deer.
For once, Gustav listened quietly. When it was his turn to talk, he said unexpectedly:
”I didn’t know you liked me at all. Maybe I’ve been a little… harsh.”
All the animals stared at Gustav in surprise. Ursula smiled and said:
”Sometimes, Gustav, kindness is what truly makes you popular.”
From that day on, Gustav tried to be a little less rude. He didn’t become perfect, but he learned that sometimes it’s better to be kind than to be right.
