Motu Haathi Aur Chhotu Chuha

Jungle mein ek bahut bada haathi rehta tha. Itna bada ki jab woh chalta tha, toh zameen hilti thi — dhum dhum dhum!

Sablog usse "Motu" kehte the. Motu bahut mazboot tha. Bade-bade ped ukhad de. Bhari cheezein utha le. Poora jungle Motu se darta tha.

Lekin Motu ka ek raaz tha jo kisi ko nahi pata tha.

Motu chuhe se darta tha!

"Eeeeek!" Jab bhi koi chuha aata, Motu chillata aur bhaag jaata. Itna bada haathi — aur itna chhota chuha — sab haste the!

Chhotu Chuha

Jungle mein ek chhota sa chuha bhi rehta tha — Chhotu. Chhotu itna chhota tha ki log usse dekhte bhi nahi the. Sab usse ignore karte the.

"Tum itne chhote ho, kya kar loge?" sab kehte.

Chhotu udaas rehta tha. "Kaash main bhi Motu jaisa bada hota. Tab sab mujhse baat karte."

Toofaan Aa Gaya!

Ek din jungle mein bahut bada toofaan aaya. Hawa itni tez thi ki ped gir rahe the. Baarish itni thi ki nadi mein paani badh gaya.

Sab jaanwar dar gaye. "Bachao! Paani aa raha hai!"

Motu ne kaha, "Main nadi ka raasta rok deta hun!" Motu ne bade-bade pathar uthaye aur nadi ke saamne rakh diye. Lekin ek jagah se paani nikal raha tha — ek chhota sa ched tha patthar ke beech mein.

"Yeh ched bahut chhota hai! Mera haath nahi jaata ismein!" Motu pareshaan ho gaya.

Tabhi Chhotu aaya.

"Main hun na!" Chhotu bola. Woh us chhote se ched mein ghus gaya aur andar se mitti aur patthi jamake ched band kar diya!

Paani ruk gaya! Jungle bach gaya!

Sabse Badi Dosti

Poora jungle khush tha. Sab Chhotu ki taareef kar rahe the.

Motu ne Chhotu ko apni sund se utha kar apne sar par bithaya. "Chhotu bhai, aaj se tu mera sabse accha dost hai. Tu chhota zaroor hai — lekin tera kaam bada hai!"

Chhotu ro pada khushi se. "Aur Motu bhai, chuhe se darne mein koi sharam nahi. Sab kisi se darte hain!"

Motu ne hansa. "Haan, lekin ab ek chuhe se toh bilkul nahi darunga — kyunki mera sabse accha dost hi chuha hai!"

Us din se Motu aur Chhotu hamesha saath rehte. Bada kaam ho — Motu kare. Chhota kaam ho — Chhotu kare. Dono milkar har mushkil aasaan kar dete!
