*A fish with big bones*

A long time ago, very few people lived in the New Territories. There were only a few villages. If the people wanted to go from one village to another, they often had to pass through wild and unsafe forest.

One day, a farmer’s young wife went to the next village to visit her own mother and brother. She brought along her baby son. When it was time for her to leave, her brother said “ it is getting dark. Let my son, Ah Tim go with you though the forest.”

So Ah Tim led the way and the young woman followed behind, carrying her baby. When they were in the forest, suddenly they saw a group of wolves. They began to run to avoid the danger, but Ah Tim kicked against a stone and fell down. At once the wolves caught him. The young woman cried to the wolves, “ please eat my own son instead.” Then, she put her baby son on the ground in front of the wolves and took her nephew away.

Everyone understood that this was because the woman was very good and kind. She had offered her own son’s life to save her nephew.

They ran back to the house and called for help. All men in the village fetched thick sticks and went back with her into the forest. When they got there, they saw something very strange. Instead of eating the woman’s baby the wolves were playing with him.

It was very, very smart.  This parrot would say any word-except one.  He would not say the name of the town where he was born.  The name of the town was Catano.

The man tried to teach the parrot to say Catano.  But the bird would not say the word.  At first the man was very nice, but then he got angry.  “You are a stupid bird! Why can’t you say the word? Say Catano, or I will kill you!” but the parrot would not say it.  Then the man got to so angry that the shouted over and over, “Say Catano, or I’ll kill you!” but the bird wouldn’t talk.

One day after trying for many hours to make the bird say Catano, the man got very angry.  He picked up the bird and threw him into the chicken house.  “You are more stupid than the chickens.  Soon I will eat them, and I will eat you, too.” In the chicken house there are four old chickens.  They were for Sunday’s dinner.  The man put the parrot in the chicken house and left. The next day the man came back to the chicken house.  He opened the door and stopped.  He was very surprised at what he saw!
