How to Cross the River

This children's story details a resourceful farmer who must navigate his goat, a bundle of grass, and a wild lion across a river to escape a spreading forest fire. Because his vessel is too small to carry everyone at once, he faces a logical puzzle to ensure that neither the animal nor the vegetation is eaten while left unattended. He strategically decides to transport the goat first, followed by the lion, but he cleverly swaps the goat back to the starting side to keep it away from the predator. In the final stages, he brings the grass over to the safety of the lion before returning one last time for his livestock. Through this calculated sequence of trips, the man successfully saves all his cargo from the impending blaze. The narrative concludes by praising the protagonist's quick thinking and intellect in resolving a dangerous situation.
