He had some toffee, and ate every bit,
He had a tricycle he wouldn’t lend,
He never let anyone play with his train,
He’s nobody’s friend!
But I’ll share all of my sweets with you,
My ball and my books and my games I will lend,
Here’s half my apple and half my cake 
      — I’m your friend!

Here is a short story. 
Once a lion lay fast asleep in a forest. Some mice were playing 
hide and seek near him. One mouse got trapped under the 
lion’s paw. The lion woke up, laughed loudly and let the 
mouse go!
After some days the mouse heard the lion’s roar. He saw that 
the lion lay in great pain as he was tied with many ropes. The 
mouse used his sharp teeth and cut the rope. 
‘‘You are a true friend,’’  said the lion. 
From Aesop’s Fables
 A  friend  in  need  is  a  friend  indeed.
What does this mean? 
 (i) We must be there for friends in trouble.
 (ii) Only a good friend will be with us   
  when we are in trouble.
In a short paragraph write how you can be 
a good friend.
