A selfish fox once invited a stork to dinner at his house. The fox’s wife served dinner to thetwo. Just as a joke the selfish fox put some soup in a shallow dish to serve to the stork. Thefox could easily lap this up with his tongue, but the Stork could only put his long bill in it andcouldn’t even get a gulp. The poor stork stayed hungry that night.
“I am sorry that you do not like the soup I made," said the fox with a sneaky smile.
"Oh, please do not apologize," said the Stork. "I hope you will let me have the pleasure ofinviting you over to my house soon." So a date was set for when the Fox would join the Storkfor dinner at his house.
Finally, when they were seated at the table, the Stork’s wife served them both some soup in avery long and tall jar with a small opening. The stork drank the soup easily but the fox couldnot insert his snout into the small and tall jar. This time it was the Fox’s turn to go hungry.
