The Brave Tailor

Story Summary

An inspiring story about a tailor who overcomes difficulties with wisdom.

Once upon a time, in a small town in Russia, there was a tailor. Although the tailor was small in stature, he had an extremely intelligent mind and a brave heart. Every day, he was busy in his tiny tailor shop, using his needle and thread to sew various clothes for the people in the town.

One day, suddenly a terrible news spread in the small town. It was said that a huge and fierce beast was lurking in the forest near the town. This beast often attacked passers - by and also destroyed the farmers' crops. People were so frightened that they dared not go out easily.

The tailor thought that he must find a way to solve this problem and make the town regain its peace. So, he began to think about the countermeasures.

The tailor is thinking in the shop

The tailor came up with an idea. He used his strongest fabric to make a seemingly very majestic battle robe. Then, he sewed many sharp needles on the battle robe, making the garment look as if it were covered with thorns.

Then, the tailor put on this specially - made battle robe, took his scissors and needle and thread, and set off towards the forest. When he entered the deep part of the forest, the fierce beast appeared. When the beast saw the tailor, it let out a deafening roar. It thought that this tiny human had come to die.

But the tailor was not afraid at all. He bravely rushed towards the beast. The beast opened its gaping jaws and pounced on him. Just as the beast was about to bite the tailor, the tailor nimbly dodged, and the beast missed. Moreover, the beast's body was severely pricked by the needles on the tailor's battle robe, and it howled in pain.

Seeing this, the tailor picked up his scissors and waved them in front of the beast. The beast was at a loss because of the tailor's bravery and those strange things on him, and it began to be a little afraid of this tiny human.

While waving his scissors, the tailor shouted at the beast: "You bad guy, do you think you can bully the people in our town at will? Today I will teach you a good lesson!" Although the beast could not understand the tailor's words, it could feel the tailor's majesty.

After a fierce fight, the beast was finally subdued by the tailor's bravery and wisdom. It turned around and fled from the forest, and never dared to come back to harass the town's residents again.

The tailor returned to the town victoriously, and people came out cheering to welcome him. They regarded the tailor as a hero, and the tailor also lived a happier life because of his bravery and wisdom. His tailor shop business also became more prosperous because people were all willing to ask this brave tailor to make clothes.
