Hey there, kids, we're taking a little break over the festive season.

But to keep you entertained, today we're bringing you one of the stories we produced for our beloved patron supporters without whom we could not keep BKFK going.

So here we go.

This is another Aesop's fable called The Astrologer.

Once upon a time, in a land long ago, there was a man who thought he was super special.

He believed he could predict the future by looking at the stars.

Fancy that!

He called himself an astrologer and spent his night staring up at the sky

trying to find the secrets hidden amongst the stars.

One evening, the astrologer was taking a stroll along a quiet road outside the village.

His head was tilted up, eyes glued to the stars as usual. He was so busy stargazing that he didn't notice where he was walking.

Now here's where it gets interesting.

As he was lost in the night sky, he suddenly took a tumble.

Splash! He fell right into a muddy hole filled with water.

Oh no, it was like a giant squishy puddle. There he was stuck in this muddy mess. the gooey water reaching all the way up to his ears.

Help me, help. He desperately tried to claw his way out, but the sides of the hole were as slippery as a banana peel.

His cries for help echoed through the night.

Help!

Help!

And they reached the ears of the villages in the nearby village.

They came running as fast as their legs could carry them.

They saw the poor astrologer floundering in the muddy pit.
