In a spell of dry weather, when the birds could find very little to drink, a thirsty Crow found a pitcher with a little water in it.
在一段干旱的日子里，鸟儿们很难找到水喝，一只口渴的乌鸦发现了一个水罐，里面还有一点水。
But the pitcher was tall, with a narrow neck, and try as she might, the Crow could not reach the water. The poor thing felt as if she must die of thirst.
可是水罐又高又窄，罐口很小，无论乌鸦怎么努力，都够不到里面的水。这可怜的家伙觉得自己简直要渴死了。
Then an idea came to her. Picking up some small pebbles, she dropped them one by one, with her bill, into the pitcher.
这时她想到了一个主意。她用喙叼起一些小石子，一颗接一颗地丢进水罐里。
Slowly the water rose, until at last it was near enough for her to drink.
水面渐渐升高，最后终于升到了她能喝到的高度。
Little by little does the trick.
积少成多，终能成事。
