Why did the shopkeeper sell the wooden tiger at a cheap price?
Solution:  
The wooden tiger had been carved by an unskilled carpenter. Its surface was rough, tiny slivers of wood stood up like quills all over it. It cost only two annas and a quarter. But the shopkeeper feared in telling the low price to the king as he would punish him. So he told an exorbitant price.
