| There
was an emu that was a good friend with a brolga. The emu only had two
children but the brolga had seven. One day the emu was walking past the
brolga's camp and looked at all the brolga children and thought to himself
- they have more children than I do. So one day when the brolga was out
collecting sap, the emu stole all but two children that the brolga had and
went home and hid them. |
When
the brolga came home he was so sad that he went and hit the emu and said
"how dare you steal my children." Then the brolga went back to
his camp and was never seen by the emu again.
