The Singing Bug—Part 1
A girl was going for a walk in a park. She sat
down to eat some cake. A bug came up to her and
said, “I like cake. Can I have some?” ®
The girl looked at the bug. Then she looked back
at the cake. Then she said, “Bugs do not talk. You are
a bug. So you can not talk.”
The bug said, “But I can talk.” ©
The girl said, “Go away. I do not talk to bugs.
Bugs can not talk.”
The bug said, “I can talk and I can sing.” The bug
started to sing. But the bug was not good at singing. “I
wish that bug did not sing,” the girl said.
“That singing is bad. I will have to hold my hands
over my ears.” ©
So she did.
The bug said, “If you do not like my singing, give
