Bed-Time Stories

Kanchan Bannerjee

My Amma tells me
a story every night.

There is one story about
a frog which talks.

There is another story about
a king with a long beard.

Sometimes it is about
a flying elephant.

In one story a fox and a tiger are friends.
The tiger falls into a hole.

How will the tiger get out?

Then the clever fox saves the tiger. This is the
best story.
I listen to the story and then fall asleep.
