The birds of the forest had no king. All the birds thought they needed a king. But who would be the king? One said, “Let the bird who flies the highest be the king.” Everyone agreed. Eagle (鹰) heard that and asked, “Why not make me the king now? I can fly the highest.”
“▲” said Sparrow (麻雀).
“Oh! Who’s going to beat me? You?” Eagle laughed.
Owl started the race. When everyone was ready, Owl cried, “Whoo, whoo!” All the birds took to the air.
But they could not fly very high or fast for long. One by one, they dropped out of the race. Only Eagle went on flying.
“High, high ... I’m the king in the sky ... ” he sang. He looked down and found all the birds giving up.
But Eagle did not know that little Sparrow was flying under one of his wings all the way. The time he stopped, Sparrow flew out. He flew just over Eagle’s head and cried out, “No, no, no, Mr Eagle. I’m the king of the birds. Look! I am now flying higher than you.”
All the birds were very surprised to see Sparrow fly higher. They made Sparrow their king. Eagle did not like this at all. So he caught Sparrow and threw him to the ground.
Sparrow got hurt, and half of his tail was cut off. From then on, Sparrow had a short tail.
