Goldilocks and the three bears
One day a little girl called goldilocks wandered far into the woods and came to the house of Papa bear, Mama Bear and baby bear. She looked into the room through the window. Seeing nobody in the house, she went in.
Every morning the bears ate a nice bowl of porridge for breakfast. That morning when Goldilocks entered the house, the three bears had gone foe a walk in the woods leaving the porridge to cool. Goldilocks saw the three bowls of porridge cooling on the table. She was so hungry that she ate up the porridge in baby bear’s bowl. Then she sat down in Papa Bear’s chair, Mama Bear’s chair and baby bear’s chair. Baby Bear’s chair was so comfortable that she sat there till it suddenly broke to pieces and down she went plump on the floor.
Then goldilocks went into the bedroom where there were three beds. She lay down on Papa bear’s bed; Mama Bear’s and baby bear’s bed. Baby bear’s bed was very comfortable. She lay three and fell fast asleep.
By this time, the three bears came back from their walk. They sat down at the table and suddenly the baby bar said in a wee-little bear voice, `somebody has eaten up my porridge,’ then they knew that someone had been in their house. Looking around, the great big Papa Bear said, `somebody has been sitting in my chair!’
`Somebody has been sitting in my chair and has broken it to pieces,’ carried Baby Bear.
The three bears went into their bedroom.
`Somebody is sleeping in my bed!’ cried baby bear. The bears growled and howled and Goldilocks awoke in a fright. When she saw the tree bears on one side of the bed, she jumped out of the window and ran out of the house. She ran and ran all the way home and never again went so far into the woods.
Why the dog has a cold nose
It was a very cold night. Little Pussy was looking for a warm place to curl up and sleep. She thought of the dog’s kennel and went there.
Runty and Rover lay close to one another. Pussy crept in slowly and lay between Rover’s paws. His cold nose touched Pussy and she said, `Oh! Rover! What a cold nose you have! Why is it so cold?’
`All dogs have a cold nose when they are well. Shall I tell you a story to show you why?’
`I’d love a story,’ said Pussy. ` So I do,’ said Runty.
`Once upon a time, many, many years ago it rained, and rained and flooded the earth. It did not stop for forty days nights.
A good man named Noah knew that there would be a flood. So, he with his sons built a big ship. They called it Noah’s Ark.
Noah and his wife and sons went in. they took with them two of every animal on earth.
The dogs were watch –dogs, just as very dog is now. Each night before they slept they went around the Ark to see if all was safe.
One night, one of the dogs found a hole in the corner of the ship. The water was flowing in. so he stuck his blunt nose into the hole. This stopped the water from coming in. there he stood all night.
The other dog was fast asleep.
In the morning Noah found him cold and tried. His nose had been pushed into the leak.
The hole was mended and the Ark was safe. But from that day to this all dogs have wet, cold noses! Just feel them and see!’
Pussy gave a big yawn and curled close to Rover.
