The Fox and The Crow
A Fox once saw a Crow fly off with a piece of cheese in its beak and settle on a branch of a tree.
"That's for me, as I am a Fox," said Master Reynard, and he walked up to the foot of the tree.
"Good day, Mistress Crow," he cried. "How well you are looking today: how glossy your feathers; how bright your eye. I feel sure your voice must surpass that of other birds, just as your figure does; let me hear but one song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of Birds."
The Crow lifted up her head and began to caw her best, but the moment she opened her mouth the piece of cheese fell to the ground, only to be snapped up by Master Fox.
"That will do," said he. "That was all I wanted. In exchange for your cheese I will give you a piece of advice for the future: "Do not trust flatterers."

I think that it is a funny story, because the crow didnt aware of tricking of the fox. People are often tricked when people are praised. We should be careful flatters. He know our week points. Besides he can trick us easily. So we mustnt beleive easily a person who can praise us well.

This was a short fable that taught a good lesson.I think that the crow wasnt thinking when she opened her mouth.The fox was wrong to trick her like that.It was an obvious ending though.The fox is almost always the bad guy, and is always tricking somebody.The crows character wasnt as predictable, because the crow is usually the trickster also.I enjoyed the story and would recommend it.
the story was okay it wasnt my favorite but it was interesting.

This story"The Fox and The Crow" is a usefull. But I think this fable is a little wrong. Because it is important for people to believe each other people. Flatterers not say compliment at all. Then its a bit much" Do not trust flattrers." Rather "Watch out for flatterers."

Sometimes people believe strangers saying easily. It makes mistake, and bad result. I think we shoud consider about other peoples flatters, even thouh it is so nice to hearing. Becaus some people say "you are so nice , so beautiful" like that when they want to something from that person. So we have to be careful when we listen to that from other people who are not closely with you.

This story is very short but has deep lesson. Sometimes we consider intention of someones words. Because there are some people who want to take something out of our life.

Sometimes I dont know who should I believe. But usually I dont believe strangers or someone that I dont wanna believe. Its just easy to know. If theres trust in your mind, then believe him. But if it is not, just ignore whatever they say. But the most important thing is you should believe yourself !

I think that this story tells us how to have good relationship with many people. We should not beilive flatters talk. But We should trust peoples talk according to situation.

If your friends tell you you do something very good ,you need to believe them. If a stranger commends you too much, you must becarful,maybe this person wants to take something in your life.We dont know who is your best friend and who we can believe.

This story is very useful, because we can know that not all people who say good thing, are good. For example,frauds tell you only good things, because they want you to buy their things, then they want to get money from you. When you go shopping to buy clothes, a clerk says "It suits you," because they want to sell it. People lie easily who are selfish, because they dont think others, they think only how they can be happy. As a result, people want to get something from you, they try to make you feel good. After read this story, you can know that not only good people are in the world. Hiro

I think this story is very good. It shows you that you cant believe someone who admire you more then you are. They are malicious people. You can use the lesson from this story in real life. This is a lesson that you should know because you dont want to lose something to somebody who deceive you.

I think I have heard of this story. What I learned from this story is I should not trust the people who give compliments. I think compliments are a kind of lying. I do not like to tell people a lie and I would not. It is a very good example of how bad flattery is.

I think this story want to tell about
"Do not listen sweet talking."
In our life, sometime we listen sweet talking from someone, in other side we say sweet talking to someone for our benefit. We should notice when someone say sweet talking. And also we shouldnt say sweet talking to someone.

The Story is an good example about flatters, They just compliment us for their benefit. People can easily lie to you because they want to get what u have "they dont have". Unfortunately, People sometimes ike flatters because They want to hear sweet talking about theirselves, they want to satisfy their ego. Thats why flatters appear around. So they get benefit from weak ego of people. Here is an advice " dont let the flatters to talk sweet about you because you dont need to satisfy your ego by them, You already have strong ego"

The story is one of the most famous fables. Sometimes somebody may feel worn-out. On the other hand, We dont need to suspect storys quality. The storys moral reflects true of society. "Do not trust flatterers." Its short but impressive. It must be good to children.

I think that its important to think before you believe what people always tell you. Use your mind, because sometimes we want to hear something nice and that is why people fall in traps. I would like to advise to all people to be perspicacious and don;t believe what people say.

I think that is important to know this kind of fables because they always taught you something. In "The Fox and the Crow", by Aesop, they teach that we dont have to believe what people tell you.In this fable a crow has a cheese on his beak and the fox tried to steal the cheese. The fox told to the crow tha he sings pretty good. So the crow started to sing and the cheese fell down. I would like to say that most of the times they just tell you what you want to hear. Also, theyre trying to take advantage of the situation, so they are like traps. I would like to say to all the people to be discrimanating and dont believe all thing people tell you. Some of the people take advantage of yours weaknesses. So be malicious and think bad.

I think that this story is a little bit messed up. The fox couldve just asked the crow for a piece of cheese. He did not have to flatter the crow. Telling him nice things so he could drop the cheese and the fox could get it. The fox was being greedy. That is why you cant trust people from what they say.

I think this is a good story because it has a great lesson. In my opinion the lesson that is giving in the story its as a great point. The animation that they show was right. It has words that are easily to onder stand. The story it shown that the kids can onder stand it. It was right writing. The fox and the crow are good character and they add well to the stoy.

In my opinion I think this is a good story and also got a good massage for all does people the think that if a person who give you a hand is your friend,and the true is,that you can
not believe no one.Also I think that this story can be a good example for all this kids, becase like you know little kids are victim of kidnapping and this story can be a good advice for them .This story also can help you to understand the advice that give you your patients like for example: dont go out late, be careful in the streets and be careful wich friends that you pick.So this is my advice for all this people that want to be someone and their life and they dont want to be the next victim.So I hope the you enjoy this story like I do and remember "dont trust nobody"
