In this tale, a cunning fox spots a crow perched on a branch with a mouthful of delicious cheese. The fox, known for its wit, decides to trick the unsuspecting bird. He starts praising the crows beautiful voice, asking if it could sing just as beautifully.
The fox, knowing the pride of the crow, suggests that the bird should show off its singing skills by singing while holding onto the cheese. The crow, believing its being complimented, opens its beak to sing, causing the cheese to fall right into the foxs waiting jaws.
This story teaches us a valuable lesson: pride comes before a fall. The crows downfall was its inability to resist the flattery and not see through the foxs trick. It serves as a reminder to be cautious of compliments, especially when they seem too good to be true.

So, the next time youre tempted to boast about your achievements, remember the little fox and the crow, and choose wisdom over pride.
