This is the most famous Unity is Strength story for kids. In a forest, a group of pigeons lived in a big tree. And under the same tree, a rat lived. The head of the pigeons and the rat were the thick friends. One day, the rat came to the pigeon’s head and told him that he had to go to a nearby town. He invited the head pigeon over there. Saying this, the rat left the place.
One day, as usual, the pigeons flew high in the sky in search of food. Suddenly one of the pigeons shout and said, “Hey just look down! A good amount of grains are scattered. Let’s go and eat them.” The head pigeon told all of them not to go there as there were no fields nearby. The head pigeon felt that there is something fishy. Another pigeon said, “Our head always doubts each and everything. I am going to go and eat.” Then all the pigeons flew down to eat the grains. The head pigeon followed them.
All the pigeons realized that they are not able to move their legs. All of them were caught in the net. The head pigeon said, “If you would listen to me, we would not have fallen in trouble like this.” After a lengthy discussion, they all decided to fly together at a time so that they can fly off the net and reach the nearby town where the rat is staying. The rat would help them to release from the net. All the pigeons listened to what their head had instructed and flew together with the net and reached the nearby town.
The head pigeon called the rat and the rat was ready to rescue them. The rat ran out and brought all the other rats. They all cut the net with their sharp teeth. And within seconds, they all were free. The head pigeon thanked the rat. The rat invited all of them for dinner. The rats and the pigeons had a very good feast and enjoyed the day together.
