The Fox and the Crow

Once there was a fox. He was hungry. He ran in search of food but could not find anything to eat. He saw a crow sitting on the branch of a tree. It had a piece of bread in its beak. His mouth watered. He thought of a plan. He praised the crow for its sweet songs. He prayed to him to sing a song. The crow felt proud. As the crow opened its mouth to sing, its own piece of bread fell down. The fox took it away and ate it. Moral: Beware of flatterers.
