Wild with rage, the lion leapt to
his legs and started to rain punches
on his nose. But the insect, safe
inside, refused to budge.
With a swollen nose and watery
eyes, the lion gave a terrific
sneeze, blasting the mosquito
returned to the attack: BUZZ.......
BUZZ!......it whizzed round the
lion's head. Large and tough
as the lion was, he could
not rid himself of his tiny tormenter.
This made him angrier still,
and he roared fiercely. At the sound
of his terrible voice, all the
forest creatures fled in fear,
but paying no head to the
exhausted lion, the mosquito said
triumphantly: There you are,
king of the jungle! Foiled by a
tiny mosquito like me! '' And
highly delighted with his victory,
off he buzzed. But he did not
notice a spider's web hanging
close by, and soon he was
turning and twisting , trying to
escape from the trap set by a
large spider. ''Bah! ''said the
spider in disgust, as he ate
it. ''Another tiny mosquito. Not
much to get excited about, but
better than nothing. I was
hoping for something more
substantial....''
And that's what became of the
mosquito that foiled the lion! |
