           The doves' story shows that working together as a team can help overcome even the

           toughest challenges. Their unity made them strong and saved them from danger. This
           tale teaches us the power of teamwork and cooperation                 .


                                                         In  a  big  forest  near  the  tall  Himalaya

                                                  mountains,  there  was  a  tree  with  a  flock  of

                                                  doves living on it. At the bottom                of the tree, a
                                                tiny plant started to grow. One wise old dove saw

                                                it and told the others, "We should cut that plant

                                                   now.  If  it  gets  big,  someone  might  use  it  to

                                                    reach our nests."

                                                           But the other doves didn't listen, and they

                                                    ignored the old dove's advice. As time went by,

                                                 the plant grew bigger and stronger. Everyday, the
                                    doves flew away to find food, leaving their nests empty                      .


                  One day, a hunter came. He climbed the tree and saw all the nests. He

          thought, "I'll put a net here, and when the doves come back, I'll catch them."
          So he set up a net and trapped                 the doves when they returned. The doves

          were scared, but the wise old dove spoke up, "We must work together to get

          out of this net. Let's all flap our wings as hard as we can!"

                  The doves flapped their wings together, lifting the net with them. They

          flew down to another tree, and the net got stuck in the branches. The birds

          escaped, and the hunter couldn't catch them.

                  The hunter said, "When they help each other, I can never catch them."
