The Crow and the Pitcher

 One day it was very hot and dry,
when a crow became thirsty. He flied
higher and harder in search of water.
But he could not find water anywhere.
He was sitting in a garden with thirsty.

After some time, the crow came

across a pitcher that was lying under a
tree. He peeped into it, and found that
there was some water, but at a very
low level. It was not possible for him to
drink it with his small beak. He was
disheartened. But he thought how he
could drink that water. So he didn't go
anywhere. He tried a lot because there
was some water in the pitcher made
him eager to drink.

The crow's eyes suddenly fell on a

heap of pebbles which were lying under
a nearby tree. A wonderful idea came
to his mind that by dropping the
pebbles into the pitcher, the level of
the water could be brought to a higher
level. So he began to drop the pebbles
one by one into the pitcher; and finally,
the level of the water was raised. At
last he drank it and flew happily.
