The huge pumpkin

Once upon a time, there was a family who lived on a farm. They
had a cow, a horse, two pigs, and some fruit trees. One day, a
small plant popped out.

Dad said, “I didn't plant a seed here.”

Mom said, “I didn't plant a seed here.”
Grandma said, “I didn't plant a seed here.”
Grandpa said, “I didn't plant a seed here.”
The children shouted: "Wow! Nobody planted it!”

The plant grew big and they soon saw a pumpkin. It was enormous. Huge!

“Let’s eat it,” they all said.

Peter tried to pick it up, but it was impossible. Mary tried to pick it up, but
she couldn't. Mom tried to pick it up, but she couldn´t. Dad did the same, but
it was useless. Grandpa wasn't lucky either. Grandma brought a wheelbarrow
and put the pumpkin in it. Lucky Grandma!
They all ate a delicious pumpkin soup.

Found a pumpkin on a vine.
Yes, today I found a pumpkin,
And the pumpkin now is mine!

Tried to lift it, tried to lift it,

Tried to lift it off the ground.
I could hardly lift my pumpkin
For it was so big and round!

Cut it open, cut it open,

Cut it open very wide.

Scooped the inside, scooped the inside,

Scooped the inside, me oh my!
Cooked the inside of my pumpkin,
And I ate sweet pumpkin pie!

The hare and the tortoise

Once upon a time, there were many animals in the forest: the fox, the
bear, the birds, the snake, the butterflies, and all kinds of insects.

The hare said: “I am the fastest animal in the forest”

The tortoise said: “I can go really fast”
The hare laughed: “Let’s run a race. I can beat you!”

They ran a race in the forest. All the animals came to see it: the fox,
the bear, the birds, the snake, and the butterflies and the bees.

Soon the hare was tired and went to sleep under a tree.
The tortoise walked and walked and walked… until she
saw the finish line. The hare ran very fast, but it was
too late: the tortoise won the race. She was very happy.
