  1. (continued from previous page)
    Buzz, buzz, buzz! The bees flew out. One bee stung him on the end of the nose. Curly-tail squealed, dropped the honey, and ran away. The man ran after him saying. "Come back and do your work. "No, no", squealed Curly-tail as he rubbed his nose. "I do not like your work. It is too hard" He sat down by the road side began to think. And blinked his eyes and rubbed his nose. He then jumped up and trotted home to his little farm and vegetables. He may be sure he had learned his lesson.
