The fox and the crane

Once upon a time there lived a fox and a crane in a village. One day, the fox invited the crane to dinner.

“I’m not sure whether you’ll like this food but help yourself” said the fox putting down the dish on the table.

But the dish was so flat that the crane couldn’t eat the food on it.

Being annoyed, the crane said politely.

“Thank you for inviting me to dinner. Please come to my house for dinner next time.”

After a few days, the crane invited the fox.

“I made this food specially for you so please have some.”

The crane put the food in a narrow, long-necked jar.

So the fox couldn’t eat the food however much the tried.

But the crane put his long beak into the jar and eat it happily. And he said slyly, “We have plenty of food so eat as much as you want.”

But the fox could only come home dribbling at the mouth.
