THE FOX AND THE CROW


The Fox and the Crow

Once upon a time, there lived an old lady crow that was mean and ugly. One day, Miss Crow had stolen a big piece of cheese. And then, she flew on to a branch to enjoy it.

On the other place, under the three, a sly creature, Mr. Fox, who wanted the cheese for himself, came up and spoke politely to her.

“Oh. Miss Crow, how beautiful you are! What a lovely beak, what lovely feathers you have! What pretty eyes! If only you could sing, you would be the most beautiful bird in the world!”

Very pleased to hear all of this about herself, Miss Crow gave a loud croak to show that she could sing.

Of course, the moment she opened her beak, the cheese fell down, and Mr. Fox ran away with it, laughing loudly.
