The fairy tale of Little Bear fishing

In the beautiful forest, there lives the little bear Beibei and his family.

The little bear Beibei is naughty, cute, and strong. He plays carefree in the forest all day long and is extremely happy. On this day, the little bear Beibei was tired from playing. He ran home with his hungry belly and said to the mother bear: "Mom! I'm hungry. I want to eat fish."

Mother Bear smiled. He patted the little bear on the head and said: "Wait a minute, mom will help you fish after she is done."

The little bear Beibei jumped up and down beside her mother and said: "Mom! Mom! I have grown up." , I want to catch fish for myself."

Mama Bear was surprised, but she still nodded and said: "My baby has really grown up, so be careful."

"I know." Beibei cheered and ran towards the river like a joyful girl. When he arrived at the river, he looked into the water and said, "Hey! There are so many small fish!" He hurriedly stretched out his hand to fish, but the small fish were so slippery that he couldn't catch them. He finally caught one, but he didn't even get it to his mouth. It fell back into the water with a "snap".

Beibei was very angry and slapped the river water hard. After a while, the originally clear river water was muddy by him. At this time, there was no longer a small fish in the river. He was so anxious that he sat down by the river and started to cry.

Mother Bear heard Beibei’s cry and hurriedly came over and asked: "Oh! My baby, why are you crying?"

Beibei rushed to Mother Bear in grievance. She said in her arms: "Mom! I...I didn't catch a single fish, and I made the river water dirty. Now all the small fish have run away, and I can no longer eat delicious small fish."

The mother bear laughed loudly when she heard this and said: "Silly boy, look down at the river."

The little bear curiously stretched his head out of his mother's arms, eh? The river water became clear again, and many small fish could be seen swimming around. But he immediately became worried again and said: "Oh...it's useless no matter how many fish there are. I can't catch them at all because they are so slippery."

Mother Bear touched the little bear's head and said, "Silly boy. No matter what you do, you must be patient. If you are afraid of failure and dare not try, you will only starve to death."

Beibei pouted and said: "But I really caught it. "Not even!"

Mother Bear pushed Beibei away and walked to the river. I saw her squatting down quietly, slowly stretching her hand into the river, and then suddenly exerting force, a small fish was caught in the palm of the mother bear's hand.

Mother Bear’s series of actions stunned the little bear. He also followed Mother Bear's example of fishing. If he failed once, he would try again. Several times he caught the tail of the fish, but it slipped away from the fish. The little bear became a little impatient. Looking back, he saw his mother looking at him with encouraging eyes.

So he plucked up the courage and put his hand into the water again. This time he firmly grabbed the fish's body. The fish struggled a few times but was not freed from the little bear's hand. The little bear happily held it. The fish was raised to the top of his head and shouted: "Mom, look, I've caught the fish. Look, mom!" Just as he was cheering happily, the little fish struggled to break free from his hand and fell. He landed on the ground and then somersaulted a few times before jumping into the water.

Just as the mother bear was about to comfort the little bear, she heard the little bear say: "Haha! It doesn't matter, I'll catch it again." After that, she put her hand into the river again.
