The Hen and the Rose.
There was a beautiful rose in a beautiful garden. Every morning she looked at the sun and smiled. But one morning when the sun came out he was surprised to see that his friend , the rose, looked sad. He wanted to know what the matter was.
“Dear Rose,” said the Sun, “why do you look so sad?”
“Oh, dear!” answered the rose, “I am so unhappy because an ugly worm eating my leaves andwill not go away.”
