TONYO

AND
HIS FRIEND

By: Rosemarie G. Garing

Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Tonyo, who lived in a
small village.
 His family work in the farm every day to sustain their daily
needs.
 In order to help his parents, he cleans their house every day
when every time his parents went to their farm, he started to clean
their house and backyard.
 One day, while his cleaning in their backyard he saw a mound
near at the tree. He got confuse, but he continues to clean up that
mound every day.
 He was unaware that a dwarf lived in that mound; as a result,
the dwarf chose to reveal Tonyo after getting fascinated by his
actions.
 The dwarf wanted to become Tonyo’s friend, so that he slowly
moving near to Tonyo catch his attention.
 The dwarf and Tonyo became friends, and the dwarf encouraged
Tonyo to go with him in his place as his new companion and Tonyo
didn't think twice about visiting his new friend place.
 Tonyo was stunned by what he saw next to his friend's house.
When he discovers things that he had never noticed before, he
overjoyed.
The dwarf gives him some gold as a gift on the way to help his
parents. Tonyo gave his parents the gold once they arrived home.
They enjoy an abundant life and spread what they have among their
neighbors. Because of Tonyo’s family's assistance, the village grew
wealthy. And despite having an abundant life, Tonyo and his family
have always maintained a humble demeanor and have continued to
work in the farm with neighbors.
MORAL LESSON:
Even when life is difficult, having a good heart will help you in the

future. Be as modest as ever! Spread the good fortune you have😊.
