When he was almost ready to give up, a poor man came to the palace gate. He wanted to try to answer the question. The king looked at the man’s ragged clothes. He was not pleased. He thought to himself,” How can this man be clever enough to answer my question?” So he said to the beggar, “You can try to answer the question, but if you give me the wrong answer. I will cut your head.” “Very well,” said the beggar. Then the king asked the question, “How many birds are there in the palace garden?” The beggar immediately replied, “200.” “I’ll ask my soldiers to check the number of the birds,” the king replied. “There’s no need,” said the beggar. “I counted the birds when I came to your palace. But if the number is bigger than 200, it is because some of the birds have relatives visiting them. If you find the number is less than 200, it means that some of your birds have gone to visit their relatives!

A man in Puerto Rico had a wonderful parrot. There was no other parrot like him. He was very, very smart. This parrot would say any word—except one. He would not say the name of the town where he was born. The name of that town was Cata o.
The man tried and tried to teach the parrot to say Cata o. But the bird would not say the world. At first the man was very nice, but then he got angry. “You stupid bird! Why can’t you say that word? Say Cata o, or I’ll kill you!” But the parrot would not say it. Then the man got so angry that he shouted over and over, “Say Cata o, or I’ll kill you!” But the bird wouldn’t talk.
One day after trying for many hours to make the bird say Cata o, the man got very very angry. He picked up the bird and threw him into the chicken house. “You are morestupid than the chickens. Soon I’ll eat them, and I’ll eat you too.”
In the chicken house there were four old chickens. They were for Sunday’s dinner.
The man put the bird in the chicken house and left. The next day the man came back to the chicken house. He opened the door and stopped. He was very surprised at what he saw! He saw three dead chickens on the floor. The parrot was screaming at the fourth chicken, “Say Cata o, or I’ll kill you!”
