少儿寓言故事：勇敢的小裁缝(双语)

　　Hey! Who invited you? said the little tailor, driving away the unbidden guests. However, the flies, who did not understand German, would not be turned away, and they came back in ever-increasing numbers. Finally, losing his temper, he reached for a piece of cloth and shouted, Wait, now Im going to give it to you! then hit at them without mercy. When he backed off and counted, there were no fewer than seven of them lying dead before him, with their legs stretched out.

　　Arent you someone? he said to himself, surprised at his own bravery. The whole town shall hear about this. He hastily cut out a banner for himself, then embroidered on it with large letters, Seven with one blow. The town? he said further. The whole world shall hear about this! And his heart jumped for joy like a lambs tail.

　　The tailor tied the banner around his body and set forth into the world, for he thought that his workshop was too small for such bravery. Before leaving he looked about his house for something that he could take with him. Finding nothing but a piece of old cheese, he put that into his pocket. Outside the town gate he found a bird that was caught in a bush. It went into his pocket with the cheese.

　　He bravely took to the road, and being light and agile he did not grow weary. The road led him up a mountain, and when he reached the top a huge giant was sitting there, looking around contentedly.
