on their way to the lake one day. The ducklings
were very happy following their mother and
quack-quacking along the way. All of a sudden the

frightened and shouted, “Children, hurry to the

The ducklings hurried towards the lake. The mother duck wondered
what to do. She began to walk back and forth dragging one wing
on the ground. When the fox saw her he became happy. He said
to himself, “It seems that she’s hurt and can’t fly! I can easily
catch and eat her!” Then he ran towards her.

The mother duck ran, leading the fox away from the lake. The
fox followed her. Now he wouldn’t be able to harm her ducklings.
The mother duck looked towards her ducklings and saw
that they had reached the lake. She was relieved, so she
stopped and took a deep breath. The fox thought she was tired
and he came closer, but the mother duck quickly spread her
wings and rose up in the air. She landed in the middle of the
lake and her ducklings swam to her. The fox stared in disbelief
at the mother duck and her ducklings. He could not reach them
because they were in the middle of the lake.
