The Miraculous Pitcher is a short story written by Nathaniel Hawthorne. It tells the tale of a poor farmer and his wife who live in a small village. The couple is struggling to make ends meet, and they are worried about their future. One day, an old man comes to their door and offers them a miraculous pitcher that will never run dry. The farmer and his wife are overjoyed and use the pitcher to improve their lives. However, they soon discover that the pitcher is not a gift, but a loan, and they must return it to the old man. The couple learns a valuable lesson about greed and the importance of being content with what they have. The story is a moral fable that teaches readers about the dangers of greed and the importance of gratitude.THIS 36 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: A Wonder-Book for Boys and Girls, by Nathaniel Hawthorne.
