Description: This is an old tale describing how people should be kind to others, be it a stranger or a neighbour. As the saying goes “A friend in need is a friend indeed”. The mynah helps the crow even though he ate all of her food supplies. He was also rude and obnoxious towards her children but the sweet mynah even called a doctor for him after he fell sick due to overeating.
