When he wanted to give up, he thought of a good idea. He picked up a small pebble and dropped it into the pitcher. Then he took another and dropped it in.

The Crow and the Pitcher
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It was a hot day. A crow felt so thirsty that he looked for water everywhere. Finally, he found a pitcher. But there wasn’t much water in it. His beak couldn’t reach it. He was very sad.
When he wanted to give up, he thought of a good idea. He picked up a small pebble and dropped it into the pitcher. Then he took another and dropped it in. Little by little, the water rose and he was able to drink the water.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
How clever the crow was! We should learn from the crow. When we meet with problems, we should try to solve them instead of giving up.
