The Boy Who Cried Wolf

Jabari is a twelve-year-old shepherd boy who is trusted with the whole village flock. But the hill is quiet, and a fox in a fine charcoal suit has an idea: shout "Wolf!" just for fun. It's only a little joke. Who could it hurt?

When the villagers come running, Jabari laughs. His friend Zawadi is hurt, and wise Elder Tumaini warns him that trust is like water carried in your hands. But the fox whispers again. And then one evening, a real wolf comes.

The Boy Who Cried Wolf is a Christian children's tale inspired by the classic fable and by God's Word on honesty, trust, and keeping our word. Through Jabari's story, young readers see how even a small lie can break trust. They also see that telling the truth, saying sorry, and living honestly again can begin to mend it.
