Aesop's Fables for Children
The Bear and the Bees |
|
An Aesop Fable |
|
| A bear came across a log where a swarm of bees had nested to make their honey. As he snooped around, a single little bee flew out of the log to protect the swarm. Knowing that the bear would eat all the honey, the little bee stung him sharply on the nose and flew back into the log. This flew the
bear into an angry rage. He swatted at the log with his big claws, determined
to destroy the nest of bees inside.This only alerted the bees and quick
as a wink, the entire swarm of bees flew out of the log and began to
sting the bear from head to heel. The bear saved himself by running
to and diving into the nearest pond. |

It is better to bear a single injury in silence than to bring about a thousand by reacting in anger. |
