The hen that laid the golden eggs.

Tina was a little girl. She belonged to a poor family. Though she was very poor, she was very kind. She would give away even her bread to anybody who needed it. A magician was very pleased with her goodness. He gave her a fat hen. Tina was very happy to have the hen. She could now get an egg every day to eat.

She waited for the next day excitedly. Early in the morning, she went to the hen to get an egg. The hen had laid an egg. But to Tina's surprise, it was made of gold. Tina took the egg and gave it to her mother. They sold the egg to the jeweler.

As Tina and her mother got enough money for the egg, they went to the market and bought fine clothes and lovely shoes for themselves. Tina bought cakes and chocolates too. Tina began to get a golden egg from the hen every day. When Tina got quite rich, she began to behave like other rich people. She did not help the poor any more.

One day, she even shouted at a little poor boy who asked her for a piece of bread. The poor boy went away crying. The magician was very angry at this great change in Tina. The next day, when Tina went to the hen to collect the golden egg, she was shocked to find ordinary eggs in place of the golden ones.

She was very angry and shouted at the hen.

The next day, the magician came to Tina and said, "Why did you shout at the hen?" "It laid ordinary eggs instead of golden eggs."

"It is not its fault. You are responsible for this. I will take the poor hen back. Or, you must change yourself." Tina understood her mistake. She said, "I'm sorry. I shall remember that once I was also a poor girl."

The magician left without taking back the hen. Tina found the poor boy. She gave him food to eat and new clothes to wear. The hen again began to lay golden eggs and Tina began to help the poor.
