The Banyan Deer, Ellen C. Babbitt
There is a Gold Deer
He was the king of 500 deer
There were also monkey deer who had a king
That king liked killing and eating deer
The King always had townspeople come with him
and the other townspeople didn't like that because while they were gone no one did their work
the king wouldn't kill the deer kings though
the deer were being injured at high rates
so each day they started picking a deer to be slaughtered
One day a mother deer lost and it was her turn to be killed
The banyan deer king felt so bad he took her place
When the king came to hunt and saw the golden deer laying with his head on the block he was confusxed because he granted this deer his lofe
The banyan deer explained why he was there and the king thought it was so nice he decided to not kill any deer ever again
