Solution

On a hot sunny day, a thirsty crow flew over the fields looking for water. For a long time, he could not find any water. He lost all hope. Finally, he found a pitcher filled with very less water under a tree. The crow tried very hard to push his head under the pitcher, but he found that the neck of the pitcher was very narrow. Then he tried bringing out the water by tilting the pitcher but in vain, as the pitcher was very heavy. After much struggle, an idea hit the crow. He saw some pebbles lying in the field. He decided to bring the level of the water up by throwing the pebbles inside the pitcher. He picked up the pebbles and put them in the pitcher. As more and more pebbles filled the pitcher, the water level rose. Soon the level was high enough for the crow to quench his thirst.
