Title: The boy who cried wolf

Once upon a time there lived a shepherd-boy who looked after a flock of sheep. One day he got bored of looking after the sheep so he thought he would play a trick on the villagers near by. So he cried wolf wolf!

The villagers heard his call so they stopped what they were doing and ran to the shepherd-boy. But when they got there the shepherd-boy laughed and laughed and said I tricked you there is no wolf here. So the villagers went back to there home and started there work.He did that two more times after the last the villagers said we are not coming back so good ridden and went back home. But the wolf really did come then the boy cried wolf wolf! But the villagers did not listen and all the sheep were gone.

The morale of the story is never to lie cause it might come for real and always tell the truth.

People don’t listen to lies.

It helps me not to lie to my mum and dad.
