Story: The Two Pots

Let us read

The Two Pots

There are two pots, Mud and Brass.

Mud and Brass go to the river to play.

Brass said, “I will swim in the river but you cannot.”

Mud said, “Why?”

Brass said, “If you hit a rock you will break.”

Mud said, “Let me try.”

Mud and Brass start to swim in the river.

Brass said, “Let us swim deeper.”

Mud said, “No, let us go back to the river bank.”

Mud went back to the river bank. But, Brass went on.

Soon, the river was deep, and Brass was not able to swim.

“Help! Help!” said Brass.

Mud used a stick from the river bank to help.

After that, Mud and Brass do not play in the river.

They only play by the river.
