A Tale of two brothers

There were once two brothers-dictionaries. One of them was Thesaurus dictionary, another was Rhyming dictionary. Their family was excellent and considered to be reputable among others, soon in Kingdom of Sun a severe and indescribable climate came and family suffered from famine, so brothers had to leave their family housing and go to the East for some money to earn. The relationship between brothers was a considerable difficulty. Being too emotive they had to make real effort to reach agreement all the time and always consider fault of each other to be inexcusable. They cant distinguish more important dictionary from another.
During such ordinary quarrel they saw a noticeable old woman, carrying heavy bags, she seemed to be pointless. Being good-hearted they came to her and helped with her bags. She saw the boys were not heartless and said that can put through one their wish, for example to reconcile them but with one stipulation: they had to make a poem about wishes. It was real effort for dictionaries. One could make rhymes for poem but did not indicate that could not select synonyms. The situation with other dictionary was quite opposite. Soon brothers faced the prospect that it was unreal to write a poem without union. So elder Thesaurus dictionary first made a confession and said that has abuse on brother originated from childhood, because Rhyming dictionary always was occupied with parent’s love.

After that brothers understood their mistakes and thanked a woman that simplified a process of their reconciliation.
Finalizing my tale, I’d want to recall a moral of this story for everyone to remember:  “Our power is in our unity”..

  1. As for me this is fairytale is a perfect example of a proverb: Two heads are better than one. It goes without saying that you can have a deep knowledge almost in everything, but eventually you will need a help or advice in something. That`s why we shouldn`t be all-fired sure of ourselves as backing and pieces of advice from other people can help you and expand your outlook.

  2. Good story, but my wife said that our son refused to listen it to the end. I know that your stories are excellent and reputable among others, but could you be so kind and write something more suitable for small children).

  3. I`d like to mention one more proverb: "Blood is thicker than water".
    This means that your story is very didactic, because there is not solely one prudent idea in it.
