It was Sunday. My sisters went to bed, suddenly they shouted “We want a story.” and my dad said “İsmail go and tell them a story.” I said “But they can sleep without a story”. He answered “Please they are three years old.” What can I do? I must tell one, I don’t know a story but I am good at making up fables.

I decided to tell the best one which has been made up so far. I went to their room when I was in, they said “İsmail abi, İsmail abi, tell us a story”. I said hold on tight, I am starting “Once upon a time, there was a happy family they were rich, but they didn’t have any children. Actually, they didn’t want to have a child, because they were very happy together but after years they had a child. It was a girl and when she was just 2 days old, they went to a forest. Her dad started to play with her, then suddenly the mum shouted at the man, and he left the girl on the table and went near her. When they returned, she wasn’t there. They got scared and went their homes. A giraffe took the baby and went near its friends. It said “Friends look, it’s a human by the way Pinki, Toto, Horra, Horro are her friends and she is Kapkap Pinki: oh!!! You made a mistake why did you take it Kapkap: I think we can raise her, let’s ask Wise!
Wise: Yes, we can but I think she will be very tall and clever. By the way, Wise is the king of the forest. After few years the girl became15 years old and she was 5. 50 m, because she always eats from giraffes’ food, the girl was the tallest of the forest except giraffes. Nobody liked her because the animals think being tall is bad. But she wasn’t only tall, she was also very strong. One day, she got bored and went near Wise.
The girl: Wise the others always say that you are tall and incompetent.
Wise: Hmmmm!!! Listen to me! Tomorrow I will call the lion. Don’t panic, he is my friend and he will catch a hyena and climb a tree but it will be the tallest one just you can help the hyena because you are the tallest. Next day, the lion caught it and climbed the tree. The animals couldn’t climb or help the hyena. The girl kicked the lion and helped the hyena then everybody loved the girl. My sisters have already slept.
