2. The Crow and the Fox
A crow is sitting in a big tree. She has a big piece of meat in her mouth. "My babies will have a nice breakfast," she thinks.
An old fox is looking for his breakfast. He sees the crow and the meat. "How can I get that piece of meat?" he thinks.
"Goood morning, Mrs Crow," says the fox sweetly. "How are you?"
But the crow doesn't say a word.
"You have very nice babies, Mrs Crow," says the fox very sweetly. "How are they? May I see them?"
Still, the crow doesn't say a word.
"You're very beautiful, Mrs Crow. and you have a beautiful voice, too," says the fox very, very sweetly. "Will you please sing a song for me?"
Mrs Crow thinks, "How nice Mr Fox is! I must sing him a song." So she opens her mouth, "Caw! Caw!" Down drops the meat into the fox's mouth.
