The Storyteller," by Saki (whose real name was H.H. Munro) is about a woman who is travelling by train with two young nieces and a nephew. The Aunt tries to entertain the children by telling them a story about
a little girl who was good, and made friends with every one on account of her goodness, and was finally saved from a mad bull by a number of rescuers who admired her moral character.
The children find the story boring because of its very traditional moral stance that good things happen to good people.
A bachelor is sitting on the same train observing observing the Aunt and her young charges. He offers to tell them a story.
The bachelor's story is about a girl who is "horribly good," so good that she wore on her dress three medals for goodness. As a further reward for her goodness, the girl is invited to visit the park that belongs to the local Prince.
As the girl strolls through the park, she is attacked by a wolf. The girl hides behinds behind a bush, but the wolf eventually locates her when her medals click against one another. The wolf devours the little girl.
The nieces and nephews love the story.
