He was very

"You must
take good care of it," said his mother.
"Yes, mother,"
said John, "and I will let Lucy and May look at it too.
They like to

Do you not think

One morning
as I was going to school, I found this kitten.
She was by a
tree in the woods.
After school
I took her home.
"Mother,"
I said, "see this pretty little kitten. May I keep her as a
pet?"
Mother said,
"You may keep her if you will take good care of her."
I am kind to
my kitten.

REVIEW.
My mother gave
me a new book.
I took it to
school one morning, to let the girls see the pictures.
Soon after this
I found my pet kitten and took her home with me.
I like to play
with my pet kitten.
I will do as
mother says. I will take good care of the kitten.
I love little
Lucy. But now she has gone far away to her home.
I like to see
John run with his kite.
He can run as
fast as the other boys, but he can not jump far.
He does not
like to look at books and pictures, but he can play on a drum.
