The Giant Turnip

Once upon a time, in a small village in India, there lived a kind-hearted farmer named Ramu. He lived with his family in a humble hut surrounded by lush green fields. Ramu loved to grow vegetables in his field, and he took great care of his crops.

One day, Ramu sowed a few turnip seeds in his garden. To his surprise, one of the turnips grew and grew until it became absolutely enormous! It was the biggest turnip he had ever seen. Ramu decided it was time to pull the turnip out of the ground.

Ramu grabbed the turnip and pulled with all his might. But the turnip wouldn’t budge. It was stuck firmly in the soil. “I need help,” thought Ramu. So he called his wife, Radha.

“Radha, come help me pull this enormous turnip!” he said. Radha came and held onto Ramu’s waist. Together, they pulled and pulled, but the turnip still wouldn’t come out.

Radha called their son, Hari. “Hari, come help us pull this enormous turnip!” Hari grabbed his mother’s waist, and the three of them pulled and pulled, but the turnip still wouldn’t come out.

Hari called his little sister, Meena. “Meena, come help us pull this enormous turnip!” Meena held onto Hari’s waist, and now four of them pulled with all their might, but the turnip still wouldn’t come out.

Meena called the family’s goat, Kali. “Kali, come help us pull this enormous turnip!” Kali held onto Meena’s dupatta with her teeth. All five of them pulled and pulled, but the turnip still wouldn’t come out.

Finally, Kali bleated loudly, and their pet squirrel, Chintu, came running. “Chintu, come help us pull this enormous turnip!” Chintu grabbed Kali’s tail, and now there were six of them pulling together.

With one great heave, they pulled and pulled until—POP! Out came the enormous turnip! Everyone tumbled backward, laughing and cheering.

The family took the enormous turnip home and cooked a delicious feast with it. They shared the meal with their neighbors, and everyone in the village marveled at the size of the turnip and the teamwork it took to pull it out.

Moral of the story: "Teamwork makes the impossible possible." When people (or even animals) work together, they can achieve great things.
