The Ant and the Dove

The Ant and the Dove

Today I am going to tell the ant and the dove story. It is a very popular classic moral story for kids that teaches us about true friendship based on the value of helping the one in need. Let’s Read the full ant and the dove story to know what really happened.

Once upon a time, a little dove lived on a tree on the bank of the river. One day dove was sitting on a branch of a tree enjoying the sunshine. Suddenly he saw some movement in the river. When he looked very carefully, He saw that a small ant was drowning in the river. She was trying hard to save her life. She was very tired. He wanted to help the ant. The dove came down from the branch and started looking for a way to get the ant out. He thought for a while. Then he looked around. He suddenly had a good idea.

The Dove went back to the tree and plucked a leaf. The ant could not understand what the dove was going to do. The dove threw that leaf at the ant.

Now the ant understood. When the leaf reached the ant, she climbed on it. Dove put the leaf on the bank of the river. The ant came to the bank of the river safely. In this way, the dove saved the ant’s life. The ant thanked the dove and went to her home.

A few weeks later, a fowler came to the forest to catch the birds. He threw some grains on the ground and spread his net on it. He was quietly waiting for some bird to be caught in the net. The dove was completely unaware of this.

The ant was passing through the same place. She saw all the preparations of the fowler. She also saw the same dove who saved her life, slowly flying to get caught in the same net. The ant started running towards the fowler and bit the fowler’s leg badly. The fowler groaned in pain. The dove immediately saw where the noise was coming from. When he saw the fowler, he understood everything. He flew in the other direction. His life was saved. Ant also went on to her work.

In that moment, the bond of friendship between the ant and the dove was sealed forever. They continued to live in the forest, each day growing their friendship stronger.  Their remarkable story of friendship and bravery spread throughout the forest, inspiring all the other animals to look out for one another. The ant and the dove remained the best of friends, always remembering how they had saved each other’s lives.

Learning from the ant and the dove story:

The ant and the dove story teaches us that “If you do good, good will come to you”. This simple yet powerful message teaches children the importance of helping others, showing compassion, and understanding that even the smallest gesture can make a big difference in someone’s life. The ant and the dove story also illustrates how acts of kindness can come back to help us in unexpected ways, reinforcing the value of friendship and mutual support.
