    no ideas here I'm afraid but you could always make one up! And then it can deliver any message you like eg. sharing, table manners, potty training lol
    Blondes have more fun!

    There's a crow in Shark in the Park by Nick Sharratt - my mindees love that book!! If you have a cat one too it could work really well (in fact you've inspired me to look for some puppets to liven up our story time!!!)

    Hi loocyloo

    I searched 'fox and the crow' at amazon and it came up with the Aesop fable about flattery. It is an Usbourne book and I am sure this is the one I used to read with my children. My children used to love it when I cawed like a crow.

    Was also going to say 'The Thirsty Crow'. There is an episode of 'Come Outside' (Auntie Mabel and Pippin) where she tells that story.

    BlondeMoment, I love your idea!

    Whenever we feed the birds in the woods crows appear. You could try that.
    Off to find my puppets too, all inspired now!
