When I was a kid, my grandma used to tell me a Kazakh traditional story named Al-Darkoze. The story is about a man who is smart but he lies to lie to achieve his goals. So when I first heard it, I felt happy and funny because this story has a lot of jokes, which make me happy and make me laugh. So that’s why I like it. And also, however, it’s the story is more comedien, it had a lot of morals for children, for example in one episode of the story there was a moral at the end of the episode that you shouldn’t lie to others because that could lead to detrimental outcomes. So it’s better to tell the trust rather than lying. And also they had other morals like you shouldn’t be greed because like that too that can lead to detrimental outcomes too. And you should share your things with your close friends or family members rather than not sharing them.
