00:00The Dog and His Bone
00:02A version of the tale by TheFableCottage.com
00:06A dog is walking down the street when he sees a bone in a trash can.
00:14A bone! Yippee! How lucky for me!
00:17He thinks.
00:18He grabs the bone and happily runs home.
00:24He runs past the train station and the school.
00:27He runs through the park.
00:31He runs onto a bridge.
00:34On the bridge, the dog looks down into the deep, still water below.
00:40There, he sees another dog with a bone in his mouth.
00:45Who is that dog? he wonders.
00:48What is he doing down there?
00:52The dog stares at the other dog.
00:54The other dog stares back.
00:58Where did that dog get such a big bone?
01:02The dog wonders.
01:04Why is his bone bigger than mine?
01:08The dog growls at the other dog.
01:11The other dog growls, too.
01:14I want that big bone, he thinks.
01:19The greedy dog decides to steal the other dog's bone.
01:24He leaps off the bridge and into the water.
01:28Splash!
01:28But as soon as he hits the water, the other dog disappears.
01:35There was never any other dog.
01:38It was just his own reflection.
01:42The water is very deep and the dog is surprised.
01:46Woof! Woof! Woof! Help!
01:48He barks.
01:49And when he barks, his bone drops from his mouth and sinks to the bottom of the water.
01:55The dog swims to shore.
01:58He is wet and cold.
02:01And now he has no bone at all.
02:06Moral
02:06Be happy with what you have.
02:10If you're greedy, you might lose everything.
