The Tiger Cub and the Calf
The Cow: very intelligent, very understanding, knows how her life is going to end but continues to live her life as is. Has a baby calf who is supposed to marry the tiger cub. Was originally best friends with the tiger who ends up eating her
The Tiger: becomes very selfish and gives into evil urges and eats the cow. She also, at the end of the story returns looking for her cub and the calf so she could eat them
The Calf: understands that his mother is going to die but remains strong, best friends with the tiger cub
The Tiger Cub: Understands that her mother has turned evil and decides to run away with the calf so they can get married.
Hollywood Cast: If this story were made into a movie, I would cast the tiger as Jennifer Lawrence, the Cow as Emma Stone, the tiger cub as Kathy Bates and the Calf as Adam Sandler
Plot: I like how this story expresses the importance of friendship and how no matter what happens in life, true friends will always be there for you in the end
