SCRIPT:

Narrator:  Many, many years ago in a faraway land, a sweet bull was born.  A very rich man called Ivan, named him Beauty.

Ivan:  I have to feed Beauty and take good care of him.

Narrator:  When Beauty grew up into a stron bull, he thought.

Beauty:  My master gave me everything.  One day I would like to thank him.

Narrator: So one day Beauty said.

Beauty: Master, go and look for a merchant proud of his animals, and tell him that I can pull a hundred wagons.

Ivan:  Are you sure of what you´re telling me? 

Beauty:  Yes, master.

Narrator:  So Ivan went to visit a merchant called Oman.

Oman:  I have the strongest bulls in town.

Ivan:  No, mine can pull a hundred fully loaded wagons.

Oman:  Very well, I bet you a thousand gold coins.

Ivan:  We will do the exhibition tomorrow.

Narrator:  The merchant tied a hundred sand loaded wagons to make them heavier. When the exhibition started, Ivan got up into the first wagon, he took his whip and hit the bull.

Ivan:  Go!  Lazy animal!

Beauty:  (thinking) I´ve never done anything bad to my master, why is he insulting me? I will not pull the wagons!

Merchant:  Ha, ha, ha, ha give me my gold coins!

Narrator: When they went home, Beauty asked Ivan.

Beauty:  Why are you sad?

Ivan:  I lost a lot of money.

Beauty:  You hit me with the whip, you called me lazy.  Tell me, did I in my whole life break something…  But I feel sorry for you, go and tell the mechant to bet again, but this time bet two thousand gold coins.  And, this time use only the words I deserve.

Narrator:  The merchant ageed and thought he would win again.  Next day everything was ready.  When it was the time for Beauty to pull the wagons, Ivan said.

Ivan:  (touching Beauty´s head with a flower)  Beauty, could you please do me the favor of pulling these hundred wagons?

Narrator:  Beauty obeyed immediately and pulled the hundred wagons.

Oman:  What!  I can´t believe he did it.  I will have to pay Ivan the two thousand gold coins.

Narrator:  And the people who watched the bull pulling the wagons ran to him to feed him and give him presents.

Ivan:  (thinking) I appreciate the lesson Beauty taught me.  I have to be humble and respect others.

Narrator:  And it was a lesson Ivan remembered his whole life.
