2. Ang Aso sa Lungga
May isang asong gutom na gutom na naglalakad sa
kalsada. Habang naglalakad, ibinubulong niya sa sarili na
kailangan niyang makakita ng isang lunggang puno ng
pagkain. Nang makakita siya ng lungga sa dulo ng kalsada,
agad siyang pumasok dito. Kumain siya hanggang mabusog.
Pero kahit busog na siya, kumain pa rin at inubos ang lahat
ng pagkain sa loob ng lungga. Sa kanyang kabusugan, halos
pumutok ang malaki niyang tiyan. Nang lalabas na lamang
siya, napansin niyang hindi na siya magkasya sa labasan.
Sumigaw siya upang humingi ng tulong. Dumating ang isa
pang aso at nalaman ang nangyari. Bago ito umalis, nagwika
siya sa kasamang aso, “Hintayin mo na lang umimpis ang
tiyan mo.”

3. Si Muning!
Muning! Muning! Hanap nang hanap si Susan kay
Muning. Dala ni Susan ang lalagyan ng pagkain ni Muning.
May laman na ang lalagyan, pero wala si Muning. Wala siya
sa kusina. Wala rin siya sa silid. Nasaan kaya si Muning?
Bumaba ng bahay si Susan. Hinanap niya kung naroon
si Muning. Ikot na siya nang ikot, pero hindi pa rin niya
nakita. Baka lumabas ito ng bahay.
Ngiyaw! Ngiyaw! Hayun si Muning! Ngiyaw siya nang
ngiyaw. Nasa loob siya ng kahon. May mga kasama si
Muning sa loob ng kahon. Nakita ni Susan ang kasama ni
Muning. Mga kuting ang kasama ni Muning sa kahon! May
puti, itim at magkahalong puti at itim na kulay ng kuting.
Tuwang-tuwa si Susan!

4. Si Brownie
Si Brownie ay aking alagang aso. Ang aking aso ay
masamang magalit. Minsan ay may pumasok na malaking
manok sa aming bakuran. Kaagad niya itong tinahulan. Kung
hindi lamang siya nakatali nang mahigpit, malamang na
habulin niya ito. Nagulat ang manok at tumakbo ito nang
mabilis palabas ng bakuran.
Kagabi ay hindi ko naitali si Brownie. Panay ang ungol
niya. Maya-maya ay may tinahulan siya nang malakas.
Biglang lumukso si Brownie sa kanyang tulugan at may
hinabol. Dali-dali kong sinilip ang aking alaga. May napatay
siyang daga! Bahagya pa niyang ginalaw ang kanyang buntot
nang makita ako. Kaagad kong binitbit sa buntot ang daga
at ipinakita kay Tatay. Masayang hinimas ni Tatay si
Brownie. “Talagang maaasahan ang asong ito,” sabi niya.

5. Balat ng Saging
“Lito! Lito!” Si Mina ang sumisigaw. Kay lakas ng
kanyang sigaw. “Bakit, Ate? Ano iyon?” Ito naman ang
tanong ni Lito. Lumapit siya kay Mina. Ayaw niyang
sumigaw pa ang kanyang ate. “Balat ng saging ito, hindi ba?
Sino ang nagtapon nito?” Galit si Mina. Galit siya sa
nagtapon ng balat ng saging. “Ako, Ate,” sagot ni Lito.
Mahina ang kanyang sagot. Mahina ang kanyang tinig. “Sabi
ko na nga ba. Huwag ka nang magtatapon dito, ha! Sa
basurahan ka magtatapon. Hayan ang basurahan natin.
Hayan, natapakan ko ang balat ng saging. Nadulas ako.”
“E... hindi ko sinasadya, Ate. Talaga, hindi ko sinasadya.
Hindi na ako magtatapon ng balat ng saging kahit saan. Sa
basurahan na ako magtatapon.”
“Mabuti. Mabuti kung gayon,” sabi ni Mina.

7. The Best Part of the Day
Mia was in her bedroom when she
heard a rooster crow. Then she heard a
man yell, “Hot pandesal! Buy your hot
pandesal!” Mia wanted to sleep some more.
But she knew she might be late for school
if she did. Finally, she began to smell fried
eggs and fish. “It’s time to get up,” she
said. Mia jumped out of bed and ran down
the steps.

8. Ice Cream for Sale
“Cling! Cling! Cling!” Benito and his
sister Nelia raced out the door. He took
some coins from his pocket and counted
them. “I can have two scoops,” he thought.
But then his little sister Nelia asked, “Can
I have an ice cream?” Benito looked at his
coins again. “May I have two cones?” he
asked. The vendor nodded. Benito and Nelia
left with a smile.

9. At Last!
The spotted egg finally hatched. Out
came a little bird who was afraid. The tree
where his mother built their nest was just
too tall. “I don’t know how to fly,” he
thought. He looked around for his mother,
but she was not there. Where could she
be? He looked down and felt his legs shake.
He started to get dizzy and fell out of his
nest. He quickly flapped his wings. At last –
he was flying.

10. The Owl and the Rooster
While the other owls slept in the day
time, Hootie slept at night. She always
yawned and fell asleep when her friends
asked her to hoot with them. This made her
sad because she liked hooting a lot. One day,
she met a rooster who could not wake up in
the morning. He could not awaken the
villagers. This made the rooster unhappy.
Hootie said, “I know how to help you. I’ll hoot
in the morning so you can wake up to do your
job!”
