Fox and Grapes

Fox and Grapes

One hot afternoon, Fox walked in the forest. He was thirsty and wanted some water.

He looked up and saw some grapes. "How lovely!" he cried. "Grapes are sweet and juicy! Just what I want."

"But how can I get them?" he wondered. He jumped up and tried to reach the grapes. Oops! He just missed the bunch.

Bird saw him and said, "Come on! Jump a little higher. You can do it." "Thanks Bird. I will try again," Fox answered.

He stepped back a little, ran forward and jumped, but missed again. "Maybe I am just too clumsy," he said.
