The Crow and the Fox - video and video script


A crow was sitting in a tree with a piece of cheese in his mouth.
A fox saw this and stopped to think.
"That crow has some delicious cheese."
"I wonder if there's a way I can get it."
The fox pondered how to take the cheese from the crow.
"Hi, crow, it's such a nice day."
The crow did not answer the fox.
The fox talked to the crow again.
"Hey, crow, you have such nice feathers."
"I've never seen a bird with such nice shiny black feathers."
"You're so pretty."
The crow shrugged at the praising words and looked at the fox.
"Oh, good, just a little more should do it."
When the crow showed a response, the fox continued to praise the crow.
"Since you have such great feathers, I'm sure you have the prettiest voice of all birds."
The crow shrugged and smiled.
"Won't you sing me a song with your wonderful voice."
The fox almost begged the crow.
The crow began to sing when it heard the fox talk about its wonderful voice.
But when the crow opened its mouth to sing, the cheese fell to the ground.
The fox picked up the cheese and swallowed it right away.
"This is so good."
"You foolish crow."
"What makes you think you're pretty."
"And everyone knows you have an ugly voice."
"You shouldn't be so happy because someone praises you like that."
The fox snickered at the crow and disappeared.
The crow had been tricked and it just stared at the fox.
