狐狸悬赏。一只狐狸家失窃了，这只狐狸贴出悬赏的告示说，谁如果能找到它被偷走的那些财物，它就会奖励谁一枚金币！这张悬赏的告示贴出去以后，全王国都轰动了，那些贪财的家伙们纷纷出动，到商店里去购买各种各样的商品。猫头鹰先生的商店一下子卖出去了一万台望远镜，蛇女士的商店一下子卖出去了一万条长长的绳子，狼先生的商店一下子卖出去了一万支来福枪，王国里最笨的一个公民，一头胖乎乎的大象十分纳闷的问王国里最聪明的一个公民，也就是一只漂亮的波斯猫说：它们买那么多的东西做什么呀？波斯猫甩了甩自己的胡须回答：喵，你可真笨！买望远镜是为了能看到那个窃贼，买绳子是为了看到那个窃贼以后能把它抓起来，买枪是为了万一抓不住那个窃贼就开枪打它！说完波斯猫就急匆匆的寻找那个窃贼去了。狐狸悬赏的告示贴出去还不到一个小时的功夫，大街上就到处挤满了拿着望远镜，绳子和来福枪的公民，这种反常的景象恰巧被国王的一个密探，一只绿色的螳螂给看见了，吓得立刻转身跑进王宫去向国王报告：陛下，大事不好啦，外面的老百姓要造反了！国王是一只特别爱飞的虎皮鹦鹉，听到螳螂这么说大吃一惊，连忙起身边往外飞边说：是嘛，我这就去瞧瞧。虎皮鹦鹉飞出王宫，居高临下的看见了那些拿着望远镜，绳子和来福枪的公民，气得马上叫了起来：反了，反了，这帮家伙要反啦！然后它就重新飞回王宫，立即吩咐它的卫队去吸干外面那帮家伙身上的血，国王的卫队是一群能征惯战的母蚊子，听到国王的命令就全体嗡嗡叫着飞了出去，不过隔了一会这些母蚊子又飞回来了，为首的几只母蚊子上气不接下气的说：陛下，您弄错了，外面那帮家伙是为了能得到狐狸悬赏的一枚金币，正在到处寻找那个窃贼呢。国王听见金币这两个字两眼禁不住一亮，往外闪出了一大堆的火花，这些火花落在那几只母蚊子的身上，立刻就把它们给烤熟了！虎皮鹦鹉张开嘴把这些被烤熟的母蚊子吃进肚子里，接着就吩咐说：快把我的士兵们都召集来。国王的士兵们是一大群叽叽喳喳叫个不停的麻雀，它们被叫来后便跟着国王去寻找那个偷狐狸财物的窃贼。吝啬的虎皮鹦鹉为了激励这些士兵，还郑重其事的宣布：谁帮我找到了那个窃贼，我就会奖励谁一枚金币的百分之一！这些麻雀一听找到那个窃贼还有奖励，飞得更来劲了，纷纷跟着国王出了王宫。飞出王宫以后，虎皮鹦鹉看到大街上黑压压的全是寻找窃贼的王国公民，根本就找不着什么窃贼，就立即给那些麻雀士兵下命令说：现在马上把屎拉到底下那帮家伙的头上去，把它们全都吓跑，地方腾出来以后，我们好去找那个窃贼。听话的麻雀士兵立刻把肚子里的鸟粪拉到了那些拿着望远镜,绳子和来福枪的王国公民的脑袋上，气愤的王国公民们一边往后退，一边举起手中的来福枪朝天上的虎皮鹦鹉和麻雀们射击，可噼噼啪啪从这些来福枪的枪管中射出来的根本就不是什么真正的子弹，而是甜甜的糖球，虎皮鹦鹉国王和麻雀士兵们看到这些糖球可乐坏了，马上张开嘴接住飞过来的糖球便吃了起来。
