Have you ever thought about what fiction is? Probably, such a question may seem surprising: and so everything is clear. Every person throughout his life has to repeatedly create the works he needs for specific purposes - statements, autobiographies, dictations - using not gypsum or clay, not musical notes, not paints, but just a word. At the same time, almost every person will be very surprised if he is told that he thereby created a work of fiction, which is very different from visual art, music and sculpture making. However, everyone understands that a student's essay or dictation is fundamentally different from novels, short stories, news that are created by professional writers. In the works of professionals there is the most important difference - excogitation. But, oddly enough, in a school literature course, you don’t realize the full power of fiction. So using our website in your free time discover fiction for yourself. The Tigress and the Butterflies by Shannon Yang (list of ebook readers .txt) 📖

As a wildlife photographer, Mr. (Identity Hidden) hated tigers and tigresses. He was just trying to make a living to fend for himself and his wife. Last October, he flew to Africa to take a bunch of Safari pictures. He drove the old green Jeep he rented. And then, in the blink of an eye, a tiger ran up the the car and scratched the window.
Of course, Mr. (Identity Hidden) took a picture.
He took the tigress home and gave it to his zookeeper friend at the rural zoo. He took good care of her.
Again Mr. (Identity Hidden) was aroused by animals. He was chased by a bunch of butterflies on the family farm. So he went to the friend’s zoo and gave him the naughty butterflies that he had captured. There he saw that the tigress had given birth to a little cub. It was cute. (“it” is what you’d say about a JLS kid!) He sneered at the butterflies, took the cub home to show his wife, and left.
Mr. (Identity Hidden)’s new tiger cub was received with smiles and “awww...s” from his family. They all loved it together. It grew big eventually, and he released the tiger into Africa on his next Safari.
Five years passed. and Mr. (Identity Hidden) was able to obtain enough money to feed his wife and his three little kids. When he saw the excitement light up on their faces when he told stories to them about Africa, he thought, Why not bring the kids to Africa? They went there together and had fast food. They set out in the Jeep.
They were attacked by a tiger. They never went on a safari again.
“I’m not very fond of most animals,” Mr. (Identity Hidden) said. The kids agreed.
They went home and back to the family farm (with the aggressive tiger), where they were sure there were no tigers. The friend came and picked up the tiger and put it in the zoo with the tigress from before. Then Mr. (Identity Hidden) tried to run away from butterflies- for the second time.
Why? Because his heart was too tender to leave the young butterflies in the bug section of the zoo.
The moral of the story is to never like animals too much. Follow your instinct and leave them.
NOTE TO ALL: Wild tigers do not really exist in Africa. Also, this story is not meant to offend animals or animal lovers in any way. ♥
