Once upon a time, a hungry crow was searching for food.
After a long time, he arrived at a nearby seashore and luckily found a clam.
He held the clam in his beak and tried to break it open, to reach the tasty meat inside.
But how could the clamshell break? The clamshell is very hard. No matter how hard he tried to open the clam.
The crow felt hungry and helpless.
Suddenly, another crow approached him and said, “Hey, you’re doing it all wrong!
“Listen to me. Take the clam in your beak and fly up as high as you can”
And drop it onto the rocks on the ground.
“The shell will crack easily. Give it a try, my friend!”
The hungry crow was impressed by this idea.
So, he took the clam in his beak and flew high into the sky.
He dropped the clam onto the rocks, just as he was told.
As expected, the clam cracked open, revealing the delicious meat inside.
However, the wicked crow quickly snatched the meat and ate it all.
Then, with a smirk, he flew away. His cunning plan had succeeded.
The innocent crow landed and felt angry at his misfortune.
He went to sleep that night with an empty stomach and made a promise to himself never to trust a stranger so easily again.
