Once a cunning jackal jumped into a big tub of blue
dye. “I am your king,” he said. All the animals, big and small believed him and
bowed before him. The clever jackal smiled. Now he was the most powerful animal
in the forest. He was proud to be a king.
Once, the jackal woke up
in the middle of the night. The jackals in the forest were howling at the full
moon in the sky. The blue jackal forgot he was a king. He, too, began to howl. “Hu…aah!
Hu…aah!” he cried. The animals ran out to see. “He is not a king. He is just a jackal!”
they shouted. They rushed to attack him. “Stop, stop! I am sorry I tricked you.
Please do not kill me!” said the blue jackal. The animals forgave him, but only
after giving the jackal a good beating.
