Farmer’s Fortune | Story by Samanyu, 8, Bangalore

Farmer’s Fortune

Once, there lived a poor farmer. One day, he discovered an injured bird and brought it to his old cottage. The farmer nurtured, played with, and even conducted flying drills for the bird.

As spring arrived after many months, the farmer’s field teemed with fresh vegetables, which he sold for a substantial amount of money. The following day, the bird flew away, leaving the farmer feeling very sad.

However, a few days later, he found a silver box near his bed. Upon opening it, to his surprise, he discovered that the bird had gifted him a box full of gemstones.
