Jerry: |
Oh, Chubby. I am afraid I don’t know the answer. Now I want
to go home. Goodbye!
|
Jerry’s house was at the end of the village. He needed to walk a lot. On his
way home, he was tired and wanted to rest. There was a raven
in the tree.
Jerry:
Raven:
|
Good day, raven! I know ravens know a lot. I cannot fly my kite.
Do you know why?
Caw, caw! Nine times, Jerry, nine times! Caw, caw!
|
The raven repeated it many times. Jerry became confused. “What did the
raven mean by nine times?”
Then Jerry started a conversation with a sheep.
Jerry: Do you know why I can’t fly my kite?
Sheep: Baa, baa! Nine times, Jerry, nine times! Baa,
baa!
Jerry was surprised to hear the same answer. He started to talk to himself.
“What does it mean? What a strange day! What a strange answer!”
He repeated the last sentence twice and then he continued to walk home.
Jerry walked for 15 minutes and then stopped. There was an ant. Jerry asked
the ant, “Do you know why I cannot fly my kite?”
