What did you not like about the story? • Would you recommend this story to others? 26 The fable titled “The stone in the road ” is a moral story. It is about a king who wants to teach villagers a lesson by hiding gold under the stone in the street and waiting to see if anyone will try to move it. The story’s purpose is to tell us that when meeting with problems we should not complain and expect others to solve them. In fact, what we should do is to take action at once to deal with them in our daily life,no matter how challenging they may seem. More importantly, we should learn from the selfless girl always caring for others in the story rather than other selfish villagers. I take a great fancy to the story and I think it quite meaningful and helpful for us to read it. Remember: one good turn deserves another. I would like to recommend this story to as many people as I can. Sample My First Template The King disguise himself..
