English short story: A Hungry Wolf

A Hungry Wolf

Once there was a wolf in a forest. One day he felt very hungry. He looked for food here and there but couldn't find any. At last he found a loaf of bread and piece of meat in the hole of a tree.

The hungry wolf squeezed into the hole and ate all the food. The food was kept by a woodcutter for his lunch. The woodcutter came to the tree to eat his lunch. But he saw there was no food in the hole, instead, a wolf.

On seeing the woodcutter, the wolf tried to get out of the hole. But it couldn't because its tummy was full and swollen with food.

The woodcutter caught the wolf and gave it a nice beatings.
