88. THE MISADVENTURES OF TOM THUMB #Inspirational Moral Stories

 

When Tom Thumb was escaping from the circus, he hid inside some hay in a

stable. The farmer’s wife picked up the hay to feed the cows, and Tom

Thumb awoke to find himself in a cow’s stomach! As the cow took in more

hay, Tom Thumb cried out: ‘Stop crushing me!’ The farmer’s wife couldn’t

believe her ears! When her husband heard the strange voice, he thought it

was an evil spirit and killed the cow. The cow was gobbled up by a wolf,

with Tom Thumb inside! He persuaded the wolf to go to his home, saying

that it would find plenty of meat there! When they had reached, he began

yelling at the top of his voice. His father heard him. Killing the wolf, he

brought his son out. The repentant father told Tom Thumb: ‘For not all the

world’s gold, will I ever sell you again.’ And he kept his word.
