A boy named Ravi was very lazy. He would dream everyday. One night he dreamt that he is on an island of chocolates in an ocean of ice-cream. He ate a part of the island daily and ate the ice-cream in the ocean. One night when he slept soldiers of the king of the island took him to the king’s palace.

There he was arrested and gave the work of making chocolates. One day while he was making chocolates no one was there, so he ate and ate lot of it. A soldier who was at the gate of the jail saw. He complained to the king so the king increased his punishment. Now daily he had to make the chocolate and apply it on the top of the mountain of that island. One day he escaped in a boat.

Just then he heard a voice. It was his mother. “Wake up Ravi, wake up, get ready, drink your milk and go to school. Ravi woke up, got ready quickly, drank his milk and went to school.

Ravi’s mother kept wondering what had happened. How come Ravi had become such a good boy? His laziness seems to have gone. He had done everything she had asked with a complaint!
