THE FOX WHO BEAT THE TIGER Sunday, November 23, 2014 THE FOX WHO BEAT THE TIGER Written by Lulu There once lived a tiger who was very clever, and thought if he could beat someone he could be the king of the forest, so he tried on every animal in the forest, but the animals were just much smarter, but the tiger still wanted to be the king of all, so one day he went to a fox’s wooden house, and knocked on the door, when the cunning fox had opened the door, he said, “Why isn’t the tiger who lived in the darkest cave in the forest, well I have something to give you for all the work you had done in the castle, and it is a reward for being very selfish.” And the cunning fox handed a bucket full of wheat and hay, the tiger then passed over the bucket, and said, “Thank you my fox, it is the best gift you had given to me.” So he said, “Well I have something for you too,” so he took the fox to a shed made of wood, and said, “You may go inside and rest for a while.” Said the tiger, when the fox went inside, the tiger immediately shut the door and locked it with the key, and laughed and laughed, but the cunning fox was also a clever little animal, he quietly opened the window and jumped out, and tip toed away, the tiger then went to the forest and told every animal about the prank, but the animals didn’t believe him, so he took all the animals to the shed, and opened the door, and said, “Well this is my prank, but when the tiger opened the door, and went inside, the fox immediately closed the door with all his might, and said, “This is now my prank , and they all lifted the fox up, and cried, “Fox, fox, you’re the king! Fox, fox, you’re the king!…… When the tiger saw that the window was open, he said, so that’s why the fox went outside,” so he pushed himself as hard as he could, and then went to the king fox’s place, and said to the guard, but the guard did not believe the tiger, so they carried him to a jail house, and locked him away.
