The Frog and The Ox

Bu yazımızda, “Kurbağa ile Öküz” olarak bildiğimiz “The Frog and The Ox” hikayesinin basit bir sürümünü derledik.

Once upon a time, in a quiet village, there was a small pond. In this pond, a little frog lived with his family. They were happy frogs, playing and jumping around all day.

On a sunny day, a big ox came to the village. He walked close to the pond to drink some water. The frog looked at the ox. He was amazed. The ox was so big, much bigger than any frog in the pond.

The little frog thought to himself, “I want to be big like that ox.” So, he started to puff up his body. He took a deep breath and his body got bigger. He wanted the other frogs to see him.

His friends and family watched him. They were worried. “Stop!” they said. But the frog didn’t listen. He wanted to be the biggest frog. He kept puffing up, trying to be as big as the ox.

But, there was a problem. The frog puffed up too much. Suddenly, he burst! The water splashed everywhere. The other frogs in the pond were very shocked. They couldn’t believe what just happened.

The frogs in the pond were sad, but they learned a very important lesson that day. It’s not good to always compare yourself to others. Everyone is special in their own way. It’s best to be happy with who you are.
