A rooster was scratching around, looking for something to eat in the yard, when he found a pearl. He then thought:
— If it were a jeweler who found you, he would be happy. But for me a pearl is of no use; It would be much better to find something to eat.
He left the pearl where it was and went away to look for something to eat.The story of the rooster and the pearl teaches us that each of us considers something to be precious according to our own needs.
Having found a pearl, the rooster recognized that, in his place, a jeweler would have great luck. But for him, rooster, the pearl was of no use – what he really needed was food.
In just a few lines, the story teaches children that we are different beings with different demands.
