Era uma vez...

Uma estória que começa com "Era uma vez...", mas que não termina em "viveram felizes para sempre". Diz respeito a cada um de nós, fazer com que seja apenas uma estória e que a sua moral nos mostre o caminho que não devemos seguir.

Once upon an unfortunate time, there was a hairy thing called man. Along with him, was a

hairier thing called animal.

Man had a larger brain, which made him think he was superior to animals.

Some men thought they were superior to men. They became leader men.

Leader men said, "We have no need to work, we will kill animals to eat", so they did.

Men increased animals decreased.

Eventually leader men said "There are not enough animals left to eat. We must grow our own

food". So men grew food.

Now, the only animals man had not destroyed were tiny ones, like rabbits and mices, and these

little animals were caught eating some of man's crops.

In China, they killed all the sparrows. In Australia, they killed all the rabbits. Everywhere man

killed all wild life. Soon there was none, and all the birds were poisoned.

Leader man said, "At last! We are free of pests!".

Man's number increased. The world became crowded with men. They all had to sleep standing up.

One day leader man saw a new creature feeding on its crops. This creature's name was starving people.

"This creature is a menace!", said leader man.
