Once upon a
time, there lived an old lady crow. She was very mean and ugly. One day, Miss
Crow stole a piece of cheese. Soon, she flew on to a branch to eat it.
Mr. Fox
noticed what Miss Crow had done. Under the tree, Mr. Fox, who wanted the cheese
for himself, came up and spoke politely to her.
"Oh, Miss Crow, how pretty
you are! What a lovely beak, what awesome feathers you have! What sweet 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 hopped
on the branch and gave a loud croak to show that she could sing.
Of course, the
moment she opened up her beak, the cheese dropped down, and Mr. Fox caught and
ran away with it, laughing loudly.
