The Disobedient Child
The Disobedient Child
Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Jack who was very disobedient. He never listened to his parents and always did whatever he wanted, regardless of the consequences.
One day, Jack’s parents warned him not to go into the woods alone. But Jack, being the disobedient child that he was, ignored their warning and ventured into the woods anyway.
As he walked deeper into the forest, he came across a strange old woman who offered him a delicious looking apple. Jack, being greedy and disobedient, took the apple without thinking twice.
As soon as he took a bite, he felt himself shrinking and soon realized that he had been cursed by the old woman. He tried to run back home, but he was too small to make it out of the woods.
Days passed and Jack was still lost in the woods, unable to find his way back home. He soon realized the gravity of his disobedience and regretted not listening to his parents.
Finally, after days of wandering, Jack stumbled upon a kind woodcutter who took pity on him and helped him find his way back home.
From that day on, Jack learned the importance of listening to his parents and being obedient. He never disobeyed them again and lived happily ever after.
