Rumble and Mumble were elf brothers who looked completely different from each other. Rumble was well built and strong while Mumble was small and thin. Rumble often teased Mumble, “Here comes Mumble mouse!” However, Mumble kept quiet because he was wise. One morning, Rumble went to gather fruits with some elves. Without noticing a mole hole, he fell into it. The other elves tried their best to pull him out, but he was too heavy. Then one of them suggested, “Let’s call Mumble.” Rumble shouted, “What can Mumble do? He is so small.” An elf said, “Mumble is wise. He will figure out a way to help you.” When Mumble came, he said, “Let’s dig a canal from the nearby stream and direct it to the hole. When the hole is full of water, Rumble will come up.” Thus, Rumble was rescued. He felt ashamed and apologised to Mumble. From that day on, he never teased Mumble again.
