 The little weed by Ana and Eleonor Skinner


                1)

                He has a great idea “I can grow more seeds! I can feed more birds!”
                “Good-bye, little birds! Come again next year!” he says to the birds.
                The birds are grateful. “We’ll come again! It’s hard to find food in the winter. Thank you weed!”
                The weed is so happy it can help.
                “It’s nice to find that one is of some use after all, isn’t it?”, says the weed to his neighbour in the
                next field.
2)

                It's winter. Snow is falling. It is cold. The wind is blowing. There are a lot of hungry little birds.
                “Tweet! Tweet! Twee! See! See! See!” sings a little bird one morning. “Here’s a lovely weed full of nice
                brown seeds!”
                The bird sees the weed and its brown seeds. He eats the seed and he is happy. He calls other birds to
                eat too.
                The weed is so happy, it stands tall and proud.
3)

                It's autumn.
                The children are looking at the weed. „You are nothing but a weed!“, they say to the weed.
                The weed is very unhappy. It hangs its head in sorrow.
                No one thinks that the weed is of any use.
