The Fox and The Stork: Moral of The Story

The fox invited the stork over for dinner but served the soup in shallow bowls that the stork could not eat from due to her long beak. In retaliation, the stork invited the fox for dinner and served the soup in tall narrow vases - while the stork could drink from hers, the fox could not reach the soup with his narrow neck. The fox learned that his selfish act had consequences.

The Fox and the Stork

One day, a selfish fox invited a stork for dinner. Stork was very happy with the
invitation – she reached the fox’s home on time and knocked at the door with
her long beak. The fox took her to the dinner table and served some soup in
shallow bowls for both of them. As the bowl was too shallow for the stork, she
couldn’t have soup at all. But, the fox licked up his soup quickly.

The stork was angry and upset, but she didn’t show her anger and behaved
politely. To teach a lesson to the fox, she then invited him for dinner the next
day. She too served soup, but this time the soup was served in two tall narrow
vases. The stork devoured the soup from her vase, but the fox couldn’t drink
any of it because of his narrow neck. The fox realised his mistake and went
home famished.

Moral of the Story


A selfish act backfires sooner or later!
