Summary

Once in a peaceful little town by the sea, there lived a cat named Avery. Avery was a fluffy, white and faun ragdoll who loved to eat more than anything in the world. He especially loved fish, and every day, he would sit by the docks waiting for the fishermen to return with their catch. The fishermen were kind and often gave Avery a fish or two. But Avery was greedy. No matter how many fish he got, he always wanted more. One sunny afternoon, as the fishermen were unloading their boats, Avery saw the biggest fish he had ever laid eyes on. It was shiny and silver, and Avery’s mouth watered just looking at it. “I must have that fish!” Avery thought, though he had already eaten two smaller ones that day. But the big fish wasn’t for Avery. It was the prize catch of the day, and the fishermen planned to sell it at the market. Avery, however, was too greedy to think about that. So, while everyone was busy, he quietly snuck up, grabbed the fish in his mouth, and ran off. Avery was thrilled! He imagined feasting on the giant fish all by himself. But as he hurried to his secret spot, he crossed a narrow bridge over a stream. When Avery looked down, he saw something amazing — another cat in the water holding an even bigger fish! Of course, it was just his own reflection, but Avery didn’t know that. “I want that fish too!” he thought greedily, dropping the fish from his mouth into the water as he tried to snatch the one he saw below. SPLASH! The fish fell into the stream and swam away, leaving Avery with nothing. His big, shiny fish was gone, and so was the reflection he had mistaken for another prize. Avery sat by the stream, sad and hungry. When he returned to the docks, the fishermen had packed up and left, and there were no more fish to be found. Avery realised that his greed had cost him his meal. From that day on, Avery learned an important lesson: being greedy can make you lose what you already have. He still loved fish, but he never took more than he needed again.

Osyth's head, they cruelly took, But wait, there's more to this book! She picked it up, and off she went, To warn the nuns, her message sent. Where she fell, a spring did flow, Healing waters, all aglow. Osyth's life on earth did end, But as a saint, her gifts descend.
