One day, a curious boy named Tom went to the farm. He saw a mule in the field. The mule was big and strong. Tom wanted to talk to the mule.
"Hi, mule! Can you keep a secret?" Tom asked. The mule looked at Tom and nodded his head. Tom was very happy. He told the mule his secret.
The next day, Tom came back to the farm. He saw the mule talking to a cow. The cow was telling the mule's secret to the other animals! Tom was sad and surprised. The mule saw Tom and felt bad for not keeping his secret. The mule said sorry to Tom, and they became friends again.
