A long time ago, there was a legend about a monster that lived in a lake called Ness, by the side of a little village in Scotland.

No one had ever seen the Loch Ness Monster, but the whole world talked about it. People said that the monster in the lake was as big as a football pitch, that it had four eyes and ate all the little children who went near the lake.

Jake was an adventurous little boy from the area. He decided to investigate and explore the area around Loch Ness.

Jake knew that if the rumours of the monster were true, he wouldn’t come out of his adventure alive.

But there was something inside him that made him think that what people said was false.

So Jake went off with his bag full of food. When he reached the banks of the lake, he began throwing the food to attract the Loch Ness Monster.

Suddenly, he heard a thunderous noise coming from the lake – The monster!!

Jake, who was very brave, stopped still at the edge of the lake and began shouting at the same time as the monster bellowed. This made the monster fall silent, and after a few seconds its four-eyed head popped out of the water right in front of Jake’s.

Of course, Jake was very scared, but he stood quietly. Puzzled that Jake wasn’t moving, the monster asked. “Aren’t you frightened, little boy?” Jake didn’t say a word, so the monster kept on talking: “I like you. You’re the first person not to run away when they see me.”

Little by little, Jake grew calmer and eventually replied: ”I’m sure you can’t be all bad. You don’t eat children, do you?”

And that was how Jake and the Loch Ness monster ended up being friends, and Jake told the story all over the village and made them see that the Loch Ness monster wasn’t as bad as everyone thought. And everyone realized that we should get to know someone first before saying negative things about them.
