The boy who cried Wolf Pedro y el lobo 2

THE BOY WHO CRIED WOLF!

Once upon a time there lived a little boy. His name was

Bill. Bill didnt live in town. He lived in the country, and looked after

sheep. He was not a very good boy. He often fell asleep watching

the sheep, and he also told lies.

The people who lived there often said, That boy will

come to a bad end. One day Bill wanted to play a practical joke on

the people. He ran down the hill and cried, Wolf! Wolf! Help! Come quickly! Wolf! All the

people ran very fast to him as they wanted to safe him. But when the

people ran up to the boy they saw no wolf.It heard you and ran away,

the boy said. The people went away. Bill began to laugh. How funny

people are! How silly they are! They are not clever at all. Three weeks

later he wanted to play the same trick again. Wolf! Wolf! he cried.

Help! Come quickly! Wolf! Many people ran to the hill as fast as they

could, but again there was no wolf. This time the boy laughed at them.

Ha ha. There was no wolf, he said. What a good joke! Dont you think so? The people

became very angry. Lies are not jokes they said, and went back home.

Two days later the weather was sunny and warm. The boy was sleeping

in the afternoon sun. Suddenly he woke up. He saw a big dark animal.

The animal ran to the sheep and grabbed one. Wolf! cried the boy.

Wolf! Help! Come quickly! Wolf! But nobody came to save the boy this

time. The wolf heard and said: I likesheep, but

a little boy will taste better. Ill have a real

diner tonight! When the boy didnt return home that night the

people went to look for him. But they never found him and nobody

saw him again.

SPANISH VERSION

EL PASTOR MENTIROSO (Pedro y el lobo)rase una vez un pequeo pastor que se pasaba la mayor parte de su tiempo cuidandosus ovejas y, como muchas veces se aburria mientras las vea pastar, pensaba cosas

que hacer para divertirse.

Un da, decidi que sera buena idea divertirse a costa de la gente del pueblo que haba

por all cerca. Se acerc y empez a gritar:

- Socorro! El lobo! Que viene el lobo!

La gente del pueblo cogi lo que tena a mano y corriendo fueron a auxiliar al pobre pastorcito que

peda auxilio, pero cuando llegaron, descubrieron que todo haba sido una broma pesada del pastor. Y

se enfadaron.

Cuando se haban ido, al pastor le hizo tanta gracia la broma que pensen repetirla. Y cuando vi a la gente suficientemente lejos, volvi a

gritar:

- Socorro! El lobo! Que viene el lobo!

Las gentes del pueblo, en volverlo a or, empez a correr otra vez

pensando que esta vez si que se haba presentado el lobo, y realmente

les estaba pidiendo ayuda. Pero al llegar donde estaba el pastor, se lo

encontraron por los suelos, riendo de ver como los aldeanos haban

vuelto a auxiliarlo. Esta vez los aldeanos se enfadaron an ms, y se

marcharon terriblemente enojados.

A la maana siguiente, el pastor volvi a pastar con sus ovejas en el mismo campo. An rea cuando

recordaba correr a los aldeanos. Pero no cont que, ese mismo da, si vi acercarse el lobo. El miedo

le invadi el cuerpo y, al ver que se acercaba cada vez ms, empez a gritar:

- Socorro! El lobo! Que viene el lobo! Se va a comer todas mis ovejas! Auxilio!

Pero esta vez los aldeanos, habiendo aprendido la leccin el da anterior, hicieron odos sordos.

El pastorcillo vi como el lobo se abalanzaba sobre sus ovejas, y chill cada vez ms desesperado:

- Socorro! El lobo! El lobo! - pero los aldeanos continuaron sin hacer caso.

Es as, como el pastorcillo vi como el lobo se coma unas cuantas ovejas y se llevaba otras para la

cena, sin poder hacer nada. Y se arrepinti en lo ms profundo de la broma que hizo el da anterior.
