A thirsty crow (Standard)
It was hot on a day in summer. Crow felt very thirsty. He had no
water to drink for the last many hours. He flew here and there in search of
water but he could not find any in the neighborhood. At last, he saw a pitcher on
the roof of a house. The crow happily flew to the pitcher. He saw into it and
found a little water at its bottom. He tried to drink water but could not
succeed because the water was very low. His beak could not reach it. He felt
disappointed because he did not know how to quench his thirst. However, he did
not lose heart. All of a sudden, he thought of a plan. He saw a heap of pebbles
at some distance. He started bringing pebbles one by one and dropping them into
the pitcher. After sometime, the water rose to the brink of the pitcher. The
crow drank water to his fill and flew away crying happily.
