Yes, it is a picture of a robin.
The robin is by its nest.
The nest is high in a big tree.
There are four eggs in the nest.
The eggs are blue.
They are as blue as the sky.
This is a pretty picture, Marian.
I am glad you brought it to me.

Robert has some pretty blocks.
His father brought them from town.
He can build a house with the blocks.
The house will have doors and windows.
The little girl is Robert's sister.
"You may build a train of cars," he says.
Do you see the train she made?

new clock tick-tock up
We have a new clock at our house.
Father bought it for Grace and me.
It is by the window in my room.
Do you know what a clock does?
It tells the time of day. It talks to us.
What does the pretty clock say?
It says, "Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock."
In the morning it says, "Get up, get up."
At night it says, "Bed time, bed time."

THE COW
Here is our old cow in the brook.
Why does she stand in the water?
She drinks the water from the brook.
The cow gives milk for us.
She eats the gra.s.s by the brook.
She walks under the trees.
She sees many red and yellow flowers.
She hears the wind roar in the tree tops.
She hears the robin sing.
Come here, old cow.
Why do you stand in the brook?
Why do you walk in the gra.s.s?
The cow will not tell me.
She looks at me. She does not talk.
[Ill.u.s.tration]
When the sun sets the cows come home.
Why do they come home at night?
I think Ned will drive them home.

THE RAIN
See, Ned.
See the rain.
It rains and rains.
Who has an umbrella?
"I have," said the robin; And he sat under a leaf.
"I have," said the bee; And it went into a flower.
"I have," said the little yellow chicken; And it ran under its mother's wing.
"I have," said the cow; And she stood under a tree.
"Who cares for an umbrella," said Ned; And he ran in the rain.
o'clock every everything
Well, Ned, where are you going now?
Are you going to school?
Yes, sir, I go to school at nine o'clock.
I go to school every day.
What do you do at school?
Tell me all the things you do.
We read and we write.
We look at the pretty pictures.
We sing about the flowers.
Is that all you do, Ned?
Oh, no, no. It is not all.
I can't tell you everything we do.
Every day we play a little.
Every day we read something new.
