ADVERTS DISCLAIMER:

This podcast has ads at the start of every episode. However never in the middle of a story or at the end.

Please be assured all ad blocks have been applied to ensure no over 18 or inappropriate ads are played.

However, there may be the odd occasion where an advert slips through the net because the company submitting them submits them under a category that is not correct. This happens very rarely and I do my upmost to stop this happening.

If this happens, please email me at shortstoriesforkids@gmail.com and let me know the following information: What the ad was for? What state you live in? And what episode you heard it on and I will immediately contact Spreaker to block the ad.

I take this very seriously and I really appreciate your support and co-operation.

As creators, we want your childโ€™s experience to be a pleasurable one. Running adverts is necessary to allow us to operate, but please do consider the premium subscription service as an alternative โ€“ itโ€™s ad free.

Welcome back, friends, to short stories for kids.

0:19.0

Beware of the cobra.

0:30.3

Everyone has their favorite animal, some like tigers, some like cheetahs, some like giraffes or chimpanzees.

0:37.3

But no matter how much you like an animal, there are very few you can just walk up to and give it a hug. Imagine throwing your arms around a wolf

0:40.0

and tickling its chin. It could end up being the last thing that you ever do. This is why we have

0:46.6

learned to enjoy animals from a distance. We treat them with respect and don't get too close. That way,

0:53.6

they tend to leave us alone in return. Rami understood

0:57.4

this. He was six, so he knew all about being sensible near animals. There was no way Rami was going

1:05.2

to pat an elephant on its knee, give a scorpion a kiss, or rub the belly of a great white shark. He was too smart to do

We can go a little closer, said Rami, but not too close.

1:47.7

They tiptoed forward to see that the snake was sunbathing in the morning warmth. What kind of snake is it? whispered Darcy. On hearing this,

1:55.5

the snake lifted its head and said, I'm a cobra. Are you venomous? asked Rami. I am, answered the cobra.

2:07.5

Well done for not coming too close. Would you have bitten us if we had? Rami wondered.

2:15.7

Oh no, not me, said the cobra.

2:19.9

I'm not like that, but you didn't know I was friendly, so you've behaved really well.

2:28.8

What if you're telling a lie? asked Darcy.
