One day, a boy was watching over his sheep.
He was very bored.
He wanted to play a trick.
"Help! Wolf!" cried the boy.
The people of the town ran to help.
There was no wolf.
The boy laughed.
The next week he did it again.
"Help! Wolf! " cried the boy.
Again, the people of the town ran to help.
Again, there was no wolf.
Again, the boy laughed.
Then, a wolf really did come for the sheep.
"Help! Wolf! " cried the boy.
No one came to help.
The wolf chased all the boy's sheep away.
The boy learned a lesson.
People don't believe liars, even when they tell the truth.
