Something Funny

Jane said, “Come, Dick.

I want to play.

Spot wants to play.

He wants to run.

He wants to run and play.”

Dick said, “Here, Spot!

Come and play.

Find the ball, Spot.

Find the ball.”


Spot ran to find the ball.

He ran and ran.

“Bow-wow,” said Spot.

“I see something.

It is not a ball.

It is something funny.

See it jump.

What is it?”

Jump! Jump! Jump!

“Bow-wow,” said Spot.

“This is something funny.

See it jump.”

Jump! Jump! Jump!

Good-bye!” said Spot.

He ran away.
