1. One day Dad was in his big garden. Beth and Ted ran to him and said, "Let us help you, Dad."

2. Dad was glad. "You each may have a garden of your own," he said.

3. "Ted," said Dad, "you may help Beth to set the plants in a neat row." "Dear wee plants," said Beth, "grow up for me! Do not be too slow."

4. "I shall show Mum my garden," said Ted. "I shall show her my garden, too," said Beth.

5. "Ted," said Mum, "do not let that weed grow. The wind will blow its seeds into your garden. Throw it into the bin."

6. Each day, Beth and Ted saw the plants grow.

7. "What a dear wee garden it is!" said Beth, as she ran with her can. "I am so glad it is my own."
