　　相傳在兩千年前，燕國壽陵地方有一位少年，不知道姓啥叫啥，就叫他壽陵少年吧!

　　這位壽陵少年不愁吃不愁穿，論長相也算得上中等人材，可他就是缺乏自信心，經常無緣無故地感到事事不如人，低人一等——衣服是人家的好，飯菜是人家的香，站相坐相也是人家高雅。他見什麼學什麼，學一樣丟一樣，雖然花樣翻新，卻始終不能做好一件事，不知道自己該是什麼模樣。

　　家裡的人勸他改一改這個毛病，他以為是家裡人管得太多。親戚、鄰居們，說他是狗熊掰棒子，他也根本聽不進去。日久天長，他竟懷疑自己該不該這樣走路，越看越覺得自己走路的姿勢太笨，太醜了。

　　有一天，他在路上碰到幾個人說說笑笑，只聽得有人說邯鄲人走路姿勢那叫美。他一聽，對上了心病，急忙走上前去，想打聽個明白。不料想，那幾個人看見他，一陣大笑之後揚長而去。

　　邯鄲人走路的姿勢究竟怎樣美呢?他怎麼也想象不出來。這成了他的心病。終於有一天，他瞞著家人，跑到遙遠的邯鄲學走路去了。

　　一到邯鄲，他感到處處新鮮，簡直令人眼花繚亂。看到小孩走路，他覺得活潑、美，學;看見老人走路，他覺得穩重，學;看到婦女走路，搖擺多姿，學。就這樣，不過半月光景，他連走路也不會了，路費也花光了，只好爬著回去了。
