Tikko and his pet

It was Tikkoo's Happy Birthday.
Tikkoo had invited lots of friends for his birthday party.
One of Tikkoo's friends gave him a baby parrot in a cage as his birthday gift.
Tikkoo was very happy.
Tikkoo took good care of his parrot.
Tikkoo taught him many things. But the parrot never spoke anything.
Tikkoo was sad.
Many times, Tikkoo's Mama told him, "TIkkoo, release the parrot from the cage".
But, Tikkoo said,"But then, the parrot will fly away. "
Mama replied,"Birds are meant to be freed. Will you like it if you were put in a cage like that?"
Then Tikko, one fine day, decided to free the parrot.
Tikkoo talked with him and finally bid him farewell.
The parrot was very happy, when he was freed.
It flew several rounds at Tikkoo's balcony and started to speak what Tikkoo had taught him.
Thus, Tikkoo came to know that birds like to fly...

The boy who didn't like to take bath.

Once, there was a boy who didn't like to take a bath. His name was Tikkoo.

Even, when Tikkoo was covered with dust and dirt, he didn't like his Mama bathing him.

But, his Mama always used to bathe him every day while he cried aloud.

One day, Tikkoo returned home covered with dust and dirt after having a nice time playing with sand.

But, his Mama was not to be seen.

"Tikkoo, your Mama went to the market to buy some fruits. Go, take a bath yourself", the boy's father replied.

Tikkoo was very tired. He fell asleep on his bed without taking a bath.

When his Mama came back, she did not wake up Tikkoo.

Tikkoo was sleeping on his bed. It was midnight.

A little monster smelling food came close to Tikkoo.

The monster's food was dust and dirt. The monster licked Tikkoo once.

"Mmm. Yummy.", thought the monster.

The monster licked Tikkoo a second time.

"Mmm. Wow, I will have a nice dinner tonight", thought the monster.

Next day, Tikkoo got up and saw himself on the mirror,

"Mama, Mama," he called out to his Mama.

Tikkoo was covered with blisters.

"Tikkoo, didn't you take a bath yesterday?", Mama asked.

"No, Mama.", Tikkoo replied, with his head down.

Mama took Tikkoo to the doctor and the doctor gave a lotion to apply over the body.

That night, TIkkoo took a bath and applied the lotion.

The monster came again. He couldn't find his food. Tikkoo was so clean that he did not smell of dirt. The monster went away sadly.

From then, on Tikkoo always bathed himself before going to bed...
