Once upon a time, there lived a prince who wanted to get married. He left his palace
and got to the streets every morning in search of a wife who must be a true princess. For a
long time, he found none and was very worried. One stormy evening, as he sad sadly at
their balcony, he saw a beautiful girl running towards his palace. The girl was escaping the
mighty storm. The prince hurriedly opened the gate and let her in. The storm was so
strong that the girl couldn’t go back home but spend the night at that palace. That evening,
when they were chatting at table, the girl told the royal family that she is a princess. The
Queen secretly wanted to find out whether she was a true princess. The Queen prepared
the guest room, made up the bed with three mattresses, but put stones in-between. The
princess could not sleep well that night because the bed was so rough for her. In the
morning, the Queen inquired if she had a good sleep. She thought they might feel bad if
she says she slept badly, but as a princess she has to say the truth always. So, she told the
Queen that she slept badly. The Queen was so happy that at last her son has found a true
princess for a wife because princes and princesses do not tell lies.

Once upon a time, Mr. Cock and Mr. Rat were great friends. One day,
they both went to their farm, harvested groundnuts, and took home.
In the evening, they boiled some and sat near the fireplace eating. Mr.
Rat proposed that they should start the “groundnut game.” This game
is played by throwing and catching grains of groundnuts over the fire.
Failure to catch a grain means giving five grains to the other person.
After playing for some time, Mr. Rat threw a grain to Mr. Cock, but it
didn’t go all the way but fell in the fire. Mr. Cock foolishly and
hurriedly bent to pick the grain up with his mouth, but unfortunately
for him the fire burnt all his teeth. So, that is why the cock has no
teeth till today. Be careful and honest while you play games and do
not play foolishly.
