10 RED HEN AND BROWN FOX

Red Hen was in the garden.
She was eating corn.
Brown Fox saw Red Hen.
Brown Fox said to himself,
“What a fine dinner Red Hen would make!”
So he went to Red Hen.
But Red Hen flew up into a tree,
Brown Fox looked up into the tree.
He saw Red Hen in the tree.
He said to himself, “Let me think.” Then he swayed to and fro.
He swayed and swayed.
This made Red Hen dizzy.
She fell out of the tree.
Brown Fox picked her up.
He put her into his bag.
Then he walked and walked.
Red Hen had a pair of scissors.
She cut a hole in the bag and flew out.
Brown Fox came to his den.
He put the bag down. He said to himself, “What a fine dinner I have!
He opened the bag, and found
—a big round hole!
