The Sick Lion
Adapted from Aesop’s Fables
1. A hungry Lion felt he was too old to hunt. 2. So, he told all the animals he was sick,
and they came to visit him. 3. Then, the Lion ate them. 4. Fox decided to visit Lion and
wish him well. 5. As he got closer to the cave, Fox thought, where did all the animals
go? 6. So, Fox stood far from the cave and asked Lion how he was. 7. "I am very weak,"
said the Lion. 8. He needs to come closer, so I can eat him, thought Lion. 9. "Come talk
with me." 10. "No, thank you," said Fox. 11. "I see many animals going into your cave, but none coming out.”
