Story 21. Renting a Donkey—1
Based on a Middle Eastern folktale.
A farmer needs a donkey for one day.
He finds a man who can rent a donkey to him.
The farmer pays one dollar to use the donkey for the day.
It is a very hot day.
The two men want to stand in the shade cast by the donkey's body.
There is a problem.
The shadow is only big enough to protect one of them from the hot sun.
You only rented the donkey.
