Two goats were grazing on both sides of the river. - Hey, friend, let's play! “I’ll go over to your side,” one goat said to the other, heading towards the log across the river.
- No, I will go over to your side! - said the other goat and also rushed to the log.
Both goats stepped onto the log at the same time to cross the river. The log was thin, the goats met in the middle of it and could not get around one another.
- Back up, I'll cross the river! - said the first goat.
- No, you back away! - said the other goat. So not a single goat began to back away.
- If you don’t listen to me, I’ll show you! - said one goat.
- Come on, try it! - said another.
Here the angry goats sat down on their hind legs and hit their foreheads, but could not resist and fell into the river.
The river was deep and fast. Almost drowning, the wet and tired goats barely made it to the shore
