LION'S STORY.

I went to school with Winnie.

We saw Max and Joe, Helen and Anna, Roger's dog, Sport, was with Max.

Sport barked at Winnie.

Then I barked at Sport.

I barked so loud that he ran home.

I saw a kind lady at the school.

The children called her the teacher.

She said: "I will take care of Winnie;

don't be afraid to leave her, Lion."

So I left her with the teacher.

Now I must watch the hens

and chickens and rabbits.

I must keep them out of the flowers.

weed and some large thistles.
She wants us to see the wings

on the milkweed seeds.
The thistle seeds have wings, too.
Then we'll get the flower that looks
like a soft, white sphere now.
You know what that is, Lion!
It is just the dandelion.

And dandelion seeds have wings, too.
The wings carry the seeds away, away!

THE SUNFLOWER.

How do

you do?

I am a sunflower.

See how tall I am!

I am as tall as Mabel. Mabel is a little girl.

Such a dear little girl!

Once I was a brown seed.

Mabel planted me.

I slept all winter.

In the spring, I came up into the sunshine.

Then I saw Mabel.

She likes sunflowers. Do you?
