Lilliam Campbell (Year 5) retelling the story of "The Fox and the Crow."

Aesop’s Fable


One bright morning there was a hungry fox looking for food when he saw a delicious pear hanging from a tall tree. “I will get that pear!” thought the fox. And just as he was about to climb the tree a bird swooped overhead and took the pear! The fox was very angry but he thought up a nice and quick trick!


“Oh Crow so up high, your feathers are darker than the night time sky” the fox began to say, “and Crow your beak so orange it looks like it could sing a good melody!” said the fox,


The crow was so flattered! “Maybe I Should sing him a song” thought the crow. And there it was, The worst singing fox had ever heard! “OHHHHHHHH JUICY PEAR YOU ARE MY ONE TRUUUUUUE LOVE! OH BEEEEEE MAH ONE TRUE LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!” sang the crow


“Eh- my ears are dead.” said the fox. The fox looked up and saw the nice green pear flying right into his mouth.


Crow noticed the pear had fallen and she looked down to see the fox walking away laughing.
