Outside the house, there was a vase with some water at the bottom. He tried to drink, but he couldn”t reach the water inside.The young crow didn”t know what to do. He leaned against the vase and cried.“Will somebody please help me?“ sobbed the crow. He cried and cried, but nobody heard him. Finally, he dried his eyes and stood up.He tried knocking over the vase, but it was too heavy. Then he tried breaking it, but he wasn”t strong enough. Finally, he had a good idea.
