Usborne First Reading: The Fox and the Stork

Fox and Stork were friends, but Fox loved playing tricks. One day, he had an idea. He asked Stork to dinner. Stork was very hungry. Fox poured soup into wide bowls. Poor Stork! She couldn't eat a thing. "Don't you like it?" said Fox. “I'll eat it, then!" The next day, Stork asked Fox to dinner. Stork poured soup into tall jars. Poor Fox! He couldn't eat a thing. Fox was angry. "You tricked me!" But Stork said,"You tricked me first. Always be kind to your friends," said Stork, "and they will be kind to you."
