The Boy Who Cried Wolf
There once was a boy who grew bored while watching over the village sheep. He
wanted to make things more exciting. So, he yelled out that he saw a wolf chasing the
sheep. All the villagers came running to drive the wolf away. However, they saw no
wolf. The boy was amused, but the villagers were not. They told him not to do it again.
Shortly after, he repeated this antic. The villagers came running again, only to find that
he was lying.

The Boy Who Cried Wolf
There once was a boy who grew bored while watching over the village sheep. He
wanted to make things more exciting. So, he yelled out that he saw a wolf chasing the
sheep. All the villagers came running to drive the wolf away.
However, they saw no wolf. The boy was amused, but
the villagers were not. They told him not to do it again.
Shortly after, he repeated this antic. The villagers came
running again, only to find that he was lying. Later that day, the
boy really sees a wolf sneaking amongst the flock. He jumped up
and called out for help. But no one came this time because they
thought he was still joking around. At sunset, the villagers
looked for the boy. He had not returned with their sheep. They found
him crying. He told them that there really was a wolf, and the entire
flock was gone. An old man came to comfort him and told him that nobody would believe a
liar even when they are being honest.
