People have said that fear has big eyes. And this saying is proven to be right. Here goes another example of it.
There was once a horned owl who found himself in a barn in a little village. The owl was afraid and was not willing to leave the barn at daytime. However unfortunate thing happened. A man servant came in and saw the owl. He got so scared that he ran away to his master to tell him about the big evil monster who had taken over the barn. The word was spread around and suddenly the whole village began thinking of a way to get rid of the giant. Did the village manage to win over the monster? Will they actually realize what they were fighting against? What will be the owl’s and the barn’s future?
