　　At first， the young deer came to the lessons as hewas supposed to. But soon， he became more interested inplaying with the other young bucks and does. He didntrealize how dangerous it could be for a deer who learnednothing but deer games. So he started cutting classes.Soon he was playing hooky all the time.

　　Unfortunately， one day the fawn who played hookystepped in a snare and was trapped. Since he was missing，his mother worried. She went to her brother the teacher，and asked him， My dear brother， how is my son? Haveyou taught your nephew the tricks and strategies of deer?

He played hooky! Howcould I possibly teach him? You are obedient and faithful，but he is not. It is useless to try to teach him.
