He swayed as he lost his balance and he fell on his head. He rolled down the hill and landed in a muddy ditch. All the animals laughed and the Beetle scurried away. The Lion scurried away too because he wasn't so high and mighty after all.]]> 2017-10-06 13:35:32 UTC https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/194676883 parrottautumnn_2022 https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/194676884 The Beetle crawls down the side of the road singing, "I am small.  I am little.  But inside, I'm tall as a tree!" The Lion looks to the ground and sees the beetle scurrying toward him. He shouts, "I am a Very Mighty King! You, Beetle, bow before me!"]]> 2017-10-06 13:35:32 UTC https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/194676884 parrottautumnn_2022 https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/194676886 So all the animals came to see the Lion.

At this position they could admire him in his finery. ]]> 2017-10-06 13:35:32 UTC https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/194676887 parrottautumnn_2022 https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/195211727 He posed in front of the water and thought how he was a mighty lion. He decided he would show all his subjects how great he was. He would invite everyone to see!]]> 2017-10-09 13:20:01 UTC https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/195211727 parrottautumnn_2022 https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/195215540 The Beetle looked up at the Lion  and said, "Your Royal Majesty, I know that I am small, but if you look at me closely, you will see that I am making a bow!" He tells the Beetle, "You're so small I cannot see if you are bowing to me."  He replied, "Look at me closely. I assure you I am bowing."]]> 2017-10-09 13:27:49 UTC https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/195215540 parrottautumnn_2022 https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/195228049 The Lion and the Beetle relates to our area in that many of us think we are so high and mighty. We view ourselves as these important people and in reality we are not. It is easy for us to fall from our high views which is what occurs in this story.]]> 2017-10-09 13:53:59 UTC https://padlet.com/parrottautumnn_2022/ji89h34vn4w5/wish/195228049
