Have you ever heard of the expression, Don't count your chickens until they are hatched? This expression comes from the Ancient Greek writer, Aesop. This video about The Maid and Her Pot of Milk tells the story in words and pictures to help you learn and remember vocabulary such as: allowing for, ball, daydreaming, farmhouse, fetch a price, maid, market, mishaps, pail, poultry, propose, toss of the head, and unison. The story illustrates the moral that we should not consider anything as definite until we have done the necessary work to make it a reality.
