There was once a king who loved his son and nephews very much . one day , they saw a green turtle near the place . they though tit was a monster . they started to cry . the king told his servants , “ Go and kill the monster !”
The king’s chief cook said “ I don’t know what monster it is . Let’s throw it into the fire !” the cook’s wife said , “No I don’t want to waste my firewood . drop a big rock on the monster to crush it !”
An old man said ,“Push him into the sea . There will be storms and it will surely drown . “ When the turtle hear this , it shouted , “you can burn me or crush me with a rock . But , please don’t throw me into the sea . I’m so afraid of drowning in a storm .
The king said , “The monster is more afraid of the sea than anything else .Throw it into the sea .”
The servant threw the turtle into the sea . The clever turtle swam away happily .
