The fat king Thin Dog – The Fat King chases a thin dog – what happens, will he stay a fat king? A short fun book for young children.
The short length, large text, and repetition makes it very nice for early readers.
Another great free Creative Commons children’s story from Pratham and Story Weaver.
By: Parismita
Text from Fat King Thin Dog:
This is a fat king.
The fat king has a thin dog.
The fat king and his thin dog go for a walk.
The dog sees a bird.
The dog runs after the bird.
The king runs after the dog.
They run and run.
They run and run for many days.
The king catches the dog
Now the fat king is thin.
<End of Story – Fat King Thin Dog>
