Every morning, Johnny takes his flock of sheep to the fields to graze. He would sit under a tree
and watch the sheep lazily munch on the grass. After they had eaten, he would round them up and walk
home.
One day, Johnny saw a wolf at the edge of the field. However, it was some distance away and it
did not come nearer. Johnny at first stood guard against the wolf and kept a strict watch over its movements.
But the wolf did not do anything. When Johnny herded the sheep and walked home with his
flock, the wolf quietly followed them at a distance.
This continued for a few days. Johnny would find the wolf waiting near the field every morning.
One day, in the middle of grazing his sheep, Johnny felt very hungry. “I think I’ll leave my sheep
here and go home and grab a quick meal. I don’t think that wolf will eat my sheep,” he said to himself.
When he came back, what did he find? The wolf had eaten most of his sheep. Johnny broke down
in tears.
In shock, Johnny sat down under a huge shady tree. “Serves me right,” he moaned to himself,
“Why was I so stupid to trust a wolf?”

It was a warm Saturday morning. Muthu woke up in a good mood. He was going to the nursery
with his father. As Muthu loved gardening, he enjoyed visiting Mr. Lee’s nursery.
Muthu could see from the parking lot that the flowers and shrubs at the nursery were already in
full bloom. Muthu’s father rubbed his hands together, “Let’s go and do some shopping,” he said. Muthu
pushed the shopping cart while his father piled things into it. They bought ferns, flowers and fertilizer.
Muthu’s father held up a birdhouse. “Should we get this?” he asked Muthu. Muthu shook his
head. “Let’s make our own,” he said.
They also decided to buy trays of young tomato and eggplant. “Are you sure we should get
tomato?” Muthu asked his father. “Remember how the snails ate it all last year?”
His father sighed and nodded. “I’m going to spread sawdust this year. I heard that it helps to keep the
snails away.”
Before paying, Muthu and his father spent some time walking around the nursery looking at all the
plants. After that, they drove home and spent the rest of the day working in their garden. Muthu was tired
when he went bed, but he was happy as the garden looked beautiful.

One hot Sunday afternoon, Hamid, a 10-year old boy was walking past an ice cream shop.
He looked through the big window and saw many boys and girls enjoying ice cream. Hamid entered the
ice cream shop and sat at a table.
A waitress put a glass of water in front of him and handed him the menu. Hamid pushed
the menu aside. “How much is an ice cream sundae?” he asked the waitress. “Two ringgit,” replied the
waitress.
The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and counted the number of coins in his
palm. “How much is a scoop of plain ice cream?” he enquired.
Some people were now waiting for a table and the waitress was a bit impatient. “One
ringgit and fifty sen,” she said angrily.
The little boy again counted the coins. “I’ll have the plain ice cream, please,” he said.
The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and walked away. The boy
finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and departed. When the waitress came back, she began wiping
down the table and swallowed hard at what she saw. There, placed neatly beside the empty bowl, was
fifty sen – her tip.
