The Boy Who Cried Wolf - An Aesop Fable

There once was a boy who kept watch over the village sheep. He would often become bored and to amuse himself, he would call out, "Wolf! Wolf," although there was no wolf about.

The villagers would stop what they were doing and run to save the sheep from the wolf's jaw. Once they arrived at the pasture, the boy just laughed. The naughty boy played this trick over and over until the villagers grew tired of him.

One day while the boy was watching the sheep, an actual wolf did come into the field. The boy cried and cried, "Wolf! Wolf!"

No one came. The wolf had a feast of sheep that day.
