Once upon a time a crow saw a piece of cheese

lying on the ground.

She took the cheese in her beak and flew to the branch of a nearby tree.

Before she could eat it, along came a fox.

He saw the crow and said...

What a beautiful smile you have.

The crow was very nice but her smile was quite normal.

She did not drop the cheese.

"You have a beautiful voice" said the fox. "Will you sing a song for me?"

The crow threw back her head and sang.

The cheese fell, down, down, down...

into the mouth of the fox.

Who said...

Thanks!
I'll catch you later.

she did not even tell her best friend

The crow was so sad

she did not even tell her best friend

the lesson she learned.

Don't talk to strangers!!!
