Six Beautiful Pencils
Once there lived a family of six pencils. They lived together well, but once when it was raining they left bored and started to argue.
The red one said: «I’m the most beautiful because I have the color of the flame.»
The orange one said: «I’m the most beautiful because I have the color of the Sun.»
The yellow one said: «I’m the most beautiful because I have the color of the Moon.»
The green one said: «I’m the most beautiful because I have the color of the trees.»
The blue one said: «I’m the most beautiful because I have the color of the sky.»
At last the violet one said: «I’m the most beautiful because I have the color of the lilac.»
By this time the rain stopped and everybody saw a beautiful rainbow. Since then after a heavy rain one can see a colored arch in the sky.

Why Cats Wash Themselves after Eating
One day a bird flew into the farmer’s yard. There was always something to eat for him there. He jumped around in the dust from one place to another picking up this and that from the ground and singing a loud song. The old bird, Tim by name, had a very good appetite and always ate a lot. Old Tim was so busy that he did not look up or around and did not see a large cat watching him from behind the farmer’s house.
«How hungry I am!» thought the cat, «but soon I am going to have a wonderful breakfast.»
Soon Old Tim finished his breakfast and was going to clean his feathers when the cat jumped at him and the bird was between the cat’s teeth.
«What a fine breakfast I am going to have!» said the cat.
«Oh, no, Mr Cat, you can’t!» cried out Old Tim. «You are not going to eat me up, are you?»
«But I am!» answered the cat. «Do you think I’m going to look at you or listen to your songs?»
And the cat sat down ready to begin his breakfast!
«Oh, no, Mr Cat, you cannot do that.»
«But why not? Don’t get it into your head that I’m going to let you fly away! Oh, no, you are wrong here,» answered the cat.
«But have you already washed yourself?»
«No, I haven’t. But what does it matter?» said the cat.
«Oh, Mr. Cat! What did your parents teach you? How can you have your breakfast without washing yourself first?» answered the bird.

«Do you think I can’t?»
«Of course, you can’t!» repeated Old Tim. «Ask anybody and they are going to tell you that I am right. People never eat without washing themselves first,» said the poor bird.
«Hm, well, I think you are right,» said the hungry cat, «all right, I am going to wash myself first and only after that have my breakfast.»
And with these words the cat started washing himself. The cat was so busy that he did not see how old Tim jumped aside and flew away.
When the cat finished his washing and wanted to begin his breakfast there was no Tim there – he was high in a tree. Old Tim was happy to fool the cat. The cat was very angry with Tim. «Well, let people do as they like, but I’m never going to wash myself before eating!» he said.
So from that day on all cats wash themselves only after but not before eating.
