THE BEARS AND BOYS

Once upon a time there were two lost baby bears whose parents had died to poachers. The two bears were named Blite and Bleach, Blite is the panda and Bleach is the polar bear. They were roaming in a forest looking for food, looking and looking but still nothing, suddenly the polar bear got a scent, they followed the scent and found a pond with fish in it. They were so excited they shouted, “HOORAY”. As they tried to catch the fish they herded shuffling in the bushes, They followed the sound and saw boys playing some sort of game. As the bears came out of the bushes, “HELP … BEARS!’’ shouted the boys. Soon after, their parents came out and said, “Guys stop shouting they’re just babies’’. “Oh”, said the boys. After that they started to get along and even played together. Turned out they were playing hide and seek. The dad saw that they didn’t have parents and decided to adopt them. They spent so much time together and ate a lot of fish. THE END

Moral – Don’t judge a book by its cover. Adam Roopen

THE FOX AND LION THE RABBIT AND THE FOX

One day there was a small and innocent rabbit looking for food in a lush forest. Fox saw Rabbit and asked him, ”How are you going to catch anything when you are so small and weak?” Rabbit ignored him and carried on searching for a meal.

Fox kept barraging Rabbit with insults and questions. Rabbit had had enough, he challenged Fox to a hunting challenge. Rabbit explained,” We will have five minutes to catch as much food as we can. The animal with the most at the end wins.” “Sure,” said Fox, “I don’t find any competition in that.”

What Fox didn’t know was that Rabbit had been stocking up on food for a long time, and guess who won? … Rabbit did.

An angry and frustrated Fox walked away regretting that he got cocky.

Moral: Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. Caleb Hugo

One day Fox went out to search for some of his favorite berry’s, blueberries. While he was out searching for the blueberries, Lion went to his house to steal all of his food because he was starving and did not want to look for food of his own. Then mouse saw him take some of the food and said, “If Fox finds out that you took all his food he will be furious.” Lion wasn’t listening and he said that he wouldn’t find out. Before running off with all the food he said that he better not tell him or he will eat him alive. When Fox got back to his house he found everything in a mess. He was furious and wanted answers. Then the mouse came out from the shadows and told him everything. Fox asked where he went, but the mouse didn’t know where he went. They started to look for him, when they found him sleeping on a massive slanted stone, with all the food next to him! They quickly but silently took all the food back to Fox’s house. Fox said to mouse that he will reward him with a feast in his honor for all the help, and they invited everyone except Lion.

SPIDER’S REVENGE

There once was a spider who lived in the Sahara desert. There was only one river where all the animals go to,so they all drank from it. Everyone loved going to the river,but when Elephant was there they all left in fear, as Elephant was really mean to the animals. This day Spider never left as he never saw Elephant. Elephant went up to Spider and said, ”Hey shortie why are you still here?.” Spider said, “Sorry, I never saw you.’’Spider was so scared that he ran away with fear. This has happened to Spider for a week now,but now Spider was angry, so he came up with a plan. The plan was to use his webs to make him look like a lion. Spider knew this was a good idea,so he did it. It took him weeks to make him look like a lion,but he did it. Spider then went down to the river and saw Elephant.Spider wanted to scare him,so he jumped behind Elephant and shouted, “Rawr!’’ Elephant screamed, “Ahhh A lion!’’ Elephant was so scared he ran into the water,but he forgot that he could not swim so he ended up drowning and all the animals were never made fun of again.

The moral of this story is: Never judge a book by its cover. Ethan Brown One day, in the hot and sunny Drakensberg a cheetah saw a zebra that was grazing. The cheetah went up to the zebra and said,’’ I challenge you to a race. If you win I will not kill you or eat you.” Zebra said, ”okay, you may have the speed but I have the stamina and determination!” Cheetah then answers,” Remember I am the fastest land animal on the planet.” Let’s start at the yellow wood tree. 3 … 2 … 1 … Go!! Off they went. Cheetah was miles ahead and found water under a tall fig tree and had a rest and drink. Then after the cheetah had a drink he got up and started running again. He ran to the finish line and was suprised to see Zebra waiting for him. He was furious. “No dinner for me,’’ the cheetah thought to himself. Zebra neighed and said, ‘’You see you can’t rely on your speed alone mister cheetah. I won and I’m free to go.” Zebra trotted in the green bush.

Moral – Slow and steady wins the race. Ethan Templeton

Black Beauty was treated nicely because his owner that took care of him was very patient, kind and gentle.

THE KING, THE WIZARD, AND THE LION

Once upon a time, a greedy and arrogant King was preparing for battle. He had an army of 200,000 men, 199,999, actually, since one was very ill. The King was saying his farewells when he went to the wizard’s house on the mountain. “Greetings, o’mighty wizard,” greeted The King. “Greetings, my king” mumbled the old wizard. “I am here to say my farewell to you,” the king said “as I go and win another battle” he ended with a yawn. “Don’t be so sure” mumbled the wizard. The King got angry with him. “Of course, I will win!” he yelled as he stomped off. The King gathered his men and they galloped off on their horses. They saw many things on their journey such as frogs,birds, fish, and a loin. But this lion kept following them, and following them, and following them. Finally, the king burst. “WHAT TOM – FOOLERY IS THIS!” he screamed. His scream was so loud the kingdom almost ushered emergency evacuation due to earthquake warnings. But the loin just started! The king was really ticked off, he began to turn the colour of a plum. “Go on, SHOO, SHOO! He yelled. The lion finally left. The king carried on his journey. When he reached the battlefield, he yelled “CHARGE”. When the king came back he was battered, bruised, and as angry as ever. “We … l – lost” he declared with sorrow and anger. Back up the mountain, the wizard chuckled. “I always knew he had a short temper.” On the rug next to him, the lion purred. Don’t rush in without strategizing and planning. The End.

Moral of the story: Don’t count your chickens before they hatch Max Carikas

Black Beauty was a very well-treated horse whose owner was a good man and didn’t like to see horses treated badly. Even though he hated wearing the bride, he was very patient and eventually learned to wear it. His owner also took him to go see a steam train, so that when he heard of saw one he wouldn’t be scared. His mother was very kind to him teaching him manners. Such as not biting or kicking. Raaid Adams

THE GULLIBLE WOLF

One day there was a greedy wolf trying to get an easy lunch. Suddenly he saw a duck walking alone. He quickly jumped at the duck and gave the poor duck a big fright. He demanded, ”Give me your treats and biscuits!” The frightened duck said, ”I don’t have any treats or biscuits.” Then the wolf said, ”Then I’ll have to eat you!’’ The duck was very scared and said, ”Please don’t eat me! I have a cousin that lives in a cave on top of the mountain.’’ “She has lots of chocolates and treats.’’ The wolf demanded that she take him to the mountain.

So they started their small journey up the mountain. When they got to the cave the wolf shouted,” do you have chocolates and biscuits and chocolates and biscuits echoed back.’’The gullible wolf then shouted,” I’m going to come in,’’ and ‘’come in’’ echoed back. At once the gullible wolf charged into the cave. Only when he was deep into the cave did he realised that it was a lie and he was now trapped in the cave. He was never seen again and all the animals were saved.

Moral of the story: don’t be gullible. Abdul Mateen Abrahams

The fox ran to his hole to see if the wolf got trapped, and surprisingly the wolf was trapped. The fox was in enjoyment and confidently went to sleep, but when he woke up the wolf escaped the trap. The food was untouched by the wolf and the fox made a trap the wolf couldn’t escape. The night the fox would finally end the wolf’s stealing spree.
