The liar
Once upon a time (ժուկով-ժամանակով) there lived a king. This king announced (հայտարարեց) throughout the land:
“I will give half my kingdom (թագավորությանս կեսը) to the man who can tell a lie that I can agree that is a lie.”
A shepherd (հովիվ) came and said, “My father has got a pipe (խողովակ). The pipe is very long and he can stir (խառնել) the stars with it».
“That’s possible,” answered the King. “My grandfather had a pipe. He used to (սովորություն ուներ) put one and of it in his mouth and stretch (ձգել) the other up to the sun to light it.”
The man went out scratching (քորելով) his head.
A tailor came and said, “I am sorry, O King, to have come so late. Wind (քամի), storm (փոթորիկ) and lightning (կայծակ) did not let me come early”. I was patching up the crack (ճեղք) of the sky.
“Oh, “I believe it is true” said the King, “but you haven’t patched it very well, for it rained a little again this morning.
This man also went away empty-handed (դատարկաձեռն).
A villager came in with a bag on his shoulder. “What do you want, my good man?” asked the King. “You owe (պարտք լինել) me a bag of gold. I have come for it.” “A bag of gold!” exclaimed (բացականչեց)the King astonished (զարմացած). “That s a lie (սուտ). I do not owe you anything.”
“All right. It is a lie. Then give me half your kingdom.”
“No, no. You’re quite right (Դուք միանգամայն ճիշտ եք). It’s not a lie,” the king tried to correct (ուղղել) himself.
“So I am telling the truth. Then give me the bag of gold.”

The Fox and the Crow
Early one morning, a fox is walking through the woods. He is hungry, and he is looking for something to eat. He sees a crow sitting on the highest branch of a tree. The crow has a piece of cheese in her beak.
“Mmm… I love cheese!” thinks the fox. “I think I’ve found my breakfast! But how can I get the cheese?”
He thinks and he thinks. Then he has a clever idea. “I will make her talk!”
He sits at the bottom of the tree and looks up at the crow.
“Good morning, Miss Crow!” he says. “It’s a lovely day, isn’t it?”
The crow looks down at the fox. She says nothing.
“I said, good morning! Did you hear me?” says the fox. “Maybe you can’t hear me up there.”
The crow is suspicious. She holds the cheese tightly in her beak and says nothing.
“Hmm. This is not so easy,” thinks the fox. But he doesn’t give up. He smiles at the crow.
“You know… you really are the most beautiful bird,” he says. “Your feathers are so shiny! Your eyes are so intelligent! Your beak is so…umm… pointy! Everything about you is perfect!”
Still, the crow says nothing.
So the fox says: “Tell me, Miss Crow… is your voice also magnificent? I hear that you have the most wonderful voice. Please sing for me! Just one song! Then I can tell everyone you really are the most incredible bird — the queen of all birds, in fact!”
This makes the crow feel good. She wants everyone to know she has a wonderful voice. She wants everyone to know that she is the queen of all birds.
She smiles a little smile. Then she smiles a big smile. Then she opens her mouth to sing her best song for the fox. And… plop! The cheese drops out of her beak and falls straight into the mouth of the fox. He swallows it in one gulp.
“Mmmmm. Thank you for the delicious breakfast, Miss Crow!” laughs the fox as he walks away.
“Have a lovely day!”
On the Skating Rink
A Fox, two Hares, a Dog, and a Pig want to go to the skating rink. Suddenly they see a big brown Bear.
“Do you want to go to the skating rink with us?” We can skate. It’s fun to be on the ice. Let’s go with us”.
I would love to but I can’t skate. OK…let’s.”
The ice is blue and nice. Now the Fox is on the ice. She can dance on the ice very well. The Hares cannot dance but they like to skate. The Pig is not a good skater. On and on she falls down. But she wants to skate well. Then the Bear goes to the ice. He is big and clumsy. He can’t even stand on his skates. The Dog wants to help him and they fall down together.
The Bear doesn’t like it. He is not happy.
“Don’t worry. Be happy,” says the Dog.
