"The Green Overcoat" by Hilaire Belloc is a whimsical tale that explores themes of greed and generosity through the life of a poor man who inherits a beautiful green overcoat. This prized possession brings him unexpected attention and fortune, leading him to become increasingly vain and selfish. However, as he navigates the complexities of newfound wealth, he learns a valuable lesson about the importance of kindness and humility. Ultimately, the story illustrates how material possessions can influence one's character and the significance of remaining grounded amidst life's temptations.
