One day, Manu was wading in a stream. A tiny fish into his hands.(p.4~5)

The fish could talk! It's so surprised! The fish said that I want you to help a big fish, so Manu carried the fish home. He put the fish into the jar of water, but the fish grew and it was too big for the jar. The fish grew very much. Finally, He couldn't live in the river. The fish was so enormous! It's amazing! The fish asked Manu to take the sea and Manu did so. "Thank you. Now it's my turn to help you." said the fish. The fish told Manu that there is going to be a great flood. Manu must build a boat. Because of the fish, Manu and many animals could alive and they could reached a great mountain. Surprisingly, The fish was a powerful god! " You can rebuild the world." said the god, so Manu worked hard to rebuild the world. He became a king!
