"Long ago, the Bear had a long, beautiful tail made of solid fur. The Cricket had no tail. During a great famine, Bear refused to share his food with Cricket. 'You are too small to be hungry,' said Bear. Cricket challenged Bear to a fishing contest. 'We will dip our tails into the river. The one who catches the most fish wins.' Bear, proud of his large tail, agreed. He dipped his tail deep into the cold water. Cricket, knowing a secret, advised Bear: 'Hold still, Lord Bear. I feel a big fish biting.' Cricket then secretly called to the Frost Spirit. The river froze solid. Bear tried to stand, but his magnificent tail was frozen in the ice. He pulled and pulled until... SNAP! His tail broke off. That is why, children, the bear has a short stubby tail today, and the cricket hops away laughing." Moral: Never despise the small, and never be greedy."
