The Clever Peddler

Jessica Zheng

Once upon a time there was a peddler who sold various goods. He used a donkey to carry his goods as they crossed plains, mountains, and rivers.They were crossing a short bridge one day and carp jumped out of the water! This scared the donkey, so it fell into the water.
The peddler quickly grabs a large branch to let the donkey bite it and swim to safety.
The peddler rushes to grab his more valuable goods and put them into his backpack.
