Pig Cow and sheep - the importance of teamwork

 One sunny morning, Cow, Pig, and Sheep were enjoying a peaceful graze in the meadow. Suddenly, Farmer Giles's little lamb, Lily, started crying from behind a patch of thorny brambles.

"Baa! I'm stuck! I can't get out!" she wailed.

Cow, being the biggest, tried to push through the brambles. He grunted and strained, but the thorns pricked his nose, and the bush was too thick for him to force his way through without hurting Lily. "It's no good," he sighed, pulling back. "I'm too big, and those thorns are sharp!"

Next, Pig, with his strong snout, attempted to root under the bush. He dug and snorted, sending dirt flying, but the roots of the brambles were too deep and tangled. "Phew!" he huffed, wiping mud from his face. "This ground is too hard, and the roots are holding fast!"

Sheep, though smaller, was known for her cleverness. She looked at the brambles, then at Cow and Pig. "We can't do it alone," she bleated. "But what if we work together?"

Cow raised an eyebrow. "How so, Sheep?"

"Cow, you're strong. You can push. Pig, you can dig. I'm small enough to squeeze into tight spaces once you've made a little opening," Sheep explained. "Cow, push gently from this side, just enough to make a gap. Pig, dig right here where I point, loosening the roots a bit. And when there's a small space, I'll go in and nudge Lily out."

It was a tricky plan, but they decided to try. Cow carefully pushed with his mighty head, grunting with effort. Just as he created a tiny crack in the dense bush, Pig started digging precisely where Sheep pointed, loosening the soil around the stubborn roots.

As soon as a small passage opened, Sheep, nimble and determined, squeezed through the prickly gap. She found Lily, who was tangled but unharmed. With gentle nudges and soft "baas" of encouragement, Sheep guided Lily through the newly made path.

"Moooo! You did it!" cheered Cow as Lily, a little tear-streaked but safe, emerged from the brambles.

"Oink, oink! We did it!" squealed Pig, doing a happy little jig.

Lily ran straight to Cow for a comforting lick and then nuzzled into Sheep's soft wool. "Thank you, thank you!" she cried happily.

Cow, Pig, and Sheep looked at each other, tired but proud. They realized that what none of them could do alone, they could easily achieve by combining their unique strengths and working as a team. From that day on, whenever they faced a challenge, they always remembered the lesson of the brambles: working together makes everything possible.
