The Kid and the Wolf A KID, returning without protection from the pasture, was pursued by a Wolf. Seeing he could not escape, he turned round, and said: "I know, friend Wolf, that I must be your prey, but before I die I would ask of you one favor you will play me a tune to which I may dance." The Wolf complied, and while he was piping and the Kid was dancing, some hounds hearing the sound ran up and began chasing the Wolf. Turning to the Kid, he said, "It is just what I deserve; for I, who am only a butcher, should not have turned piper to please you."寓意是：In time of dire need, clever thinking is key or Outwit your enemy to save your skin.摘自Aesop’s Fables 《伊索寓言》如果楼主需要更多的，可以去这个网址，上面有超过600个小寓言故事。
