What about your song?

“I bet your voice is as beautiful as your wings,” added the fox. The crow wanted to prove it and opened his beak to sing, forgetting for a moment what he was holding.

FoxI bet you sing wonderfully!
CrowCaw, caw, caaaw!
Card 4 of 5

The snack falls

The cheese fell right at the fox's feet, and he grabbed it with one jump. Then the crow understood why his visitor had been so keen to hear him sing.

CrowOh no! My cheese!
FoxThanks for the snack!
Card 5 of 5

A moment to think

The crow watched the fox walk away and took a deep breath. Next time he would enjoy a compliment, but he would also ask himself what the person giving it wanted.

CrowNext time I'll think before I open my beak.
