Rævens flade fad
The fox's shallow dish
Danish
Ræven og storken besøgte tit hinanden, og de så ud til at være gode venner. En dag inviterede ræven storken til middag. For sjov serverede ræven kun lidt suppe i et meget fladt fad. Ræven kunne nemt slikke suppen i sig, men storken kunne kun dyppe spidsen af sit lange næb i den.
English translation
The fox and the stork often visited each other, and they seemed to be good friends. One day, the fox invited the stork to dinner. As a joke, the fox served just a little soup in a very shallow dish. The fox could easily lap up the soup, but the stork could only dip the tip of her long beak into it.
