This story is about crow who one night had a dream. he dreamed he was a colorful crow. What amazing colors!
When he woke up in the morning, He didn’t find that colorful dream. He tried to find that amazing colored crow he dreamed of. But it was not easy at all. He exchanged his color with some animals such as red fish, green parrot, yellow chicken and others. But none of those colors weren’t the color of his dream. He returned all the colors that he had taken from others and after that he was black again. Spring arrived and that amazing color came to his dream again. When he woke up, he felt happy. He looked in the water. He was not that black crow anymore.
