The Fox And The Crow Story - Panchatantra Stories in English | Moral Stories for Kids by Mocomi

Once upon a time, there was a very clever fox who lived in the forest. One day, the fox was hungry and really wanted to eat something sweet. Just then, he saw a crow sitting on a branch with a cream biscuit in his beak. The fox’s mouth started watering on seeing the biscuit and he started thinking of a way to get it for himself.

The fox stood under the tree and said to the crow, “Dear crow, the lion king told me that you sing beautifully. But I have never heard your voice. Will you sing me a song?”

The crow was so pleased by the fox’s flattering words that he immediately opened his beak and began to sing, “Caw, caw, caw!” As soon as the crow opened his beak, the cream biscuit fell down. The cunning fox quickly ate it and ran away.

The next day, the fox came across the crow again. This time, the crow had a piece of cake in his mouth. The fox also wanted the cake too. It looked delicious. He said, “Dear crow, please forgive me for yesterday. Your song was so sweet and I really wanted to hear it. But I spotted a rabbit nearby so I ran away. Please sing that song for me again.”

But the crow had understood the fox’s trick. He flew off towards his nest with the piece of cake in his beak. After keeping the cake safely in his nest, he returned to where he was sitting and began singing loudly, “Caw, caw, caw!” The fox could not bear to listen to the crow’s voice and ran away, feeling very annoyed.

This story teaches us that we cannot benefit from tricking people.
