6. On a hot summer day, a thirsty crow
looked for water to drink. “It’s hot! I am
thirsty!” said the crow. “ I need to find
water.”

7. The crow flew from one place to another looking for
water to drink. He finally found a pitcher near a well. but
there was only little water in the pitcher.
He tried to drink from the pitcher but no matter how
much he tries, he could not reach the water.
“ My beak is too big. The pitcher is very narrow. How
will I get the water?’ he thought.

8. Then an idea came to the crow. he
picked up some small stones. He dropped
them into the pitcher one by one.

9. “ One, two, three….” Plop, plip, plop. Little by
little, the water rose in the pitcher.
“Four, five, six…” Plop, plip, plop. The water rose
some more. Soon the crow could reach the water.
“ Now I can drink!” said the crow. “Ah! it’s cold
and good!”
