Solution
One hot day, a thirsty crow was looking for water in the village. It saw a pitcher under a tree. The crow flew up to the pitcher eagerly to drink water. But the crow was disappointed because the water in the pitcher was half-full. It saw a pile of pebbles was scattered around the pitcher. The crow put all the pebbles into the pitcher one by one. The level of water came up. The crow drank the water till its thirst was quenched. At last, it flew away happily.
