Story Narration by my Son

My son, who is studying in class four, narrated a story titled "Two Cocks" at an inter-house storytelling competition on 15th March 2014. I have uploaded a video of it here: [Facebook link]. I am keeping this as a record of his life and ours. The story is a popular Aesop's fable.

The story goes like this:

Once upon a time, there lived two cocks. They were not friends. One day, they decided to find out who was stronger. Both claimed to be stronger, so they began to fight. They fought angrily for many hours. Finally, one cock was hurt and came down from the top of the house.

The winning cock danced with joy and happiness on the rooftop. Just then, an eagle appeared and carried him away into the sky.

The defeated cock was safe and happy with his luck.

The moral of the story is: Do not be proud, for pride will fall one day.
