Making stone soup change the villagers by giving them the gift of giving, sharing, and trusting one other. In the story it says three monks travelled along mountain they stopped at a village no one came to greet the three monks because they had fear, they had been through famine, floods, and war. So I know they do not trust any one. Also in the story, it says all the villagers worked very hard just for themselves. Lastly, in the story, it says they made stone soup and everyone got together. This shows that they are starting to trust one other. This reminds me of when I could not trust my friend.
