"The Boy Who Cried Wolf" is a classic fable that tells the story of a young shepherd boy who, feeling bored and seeking attention, falsely cries out that a wolf is attacking his flock. The villagers rush to his aid, only to find there is no wolf. The boy finds their reaction amusing and repeats the trick several times. Eventually, when a real wolf does appear and he cries for help, the villagers do not believe him, and as a result, the wolf attacks his sheep. The story imparts a crucial lesson about the consequences of lying and the importance of honesty. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
