Bella’s Baby Bird
Pete and Dad were making a new fence. Dad was doing the hammering and Pete was passing him the nails. Suddenly, Pete noticed Bella. “Dad,” he cried. “Bella’s got a baby bird in her mouth.” “Come here, Bella,” called Dad. “Bring it here.” Bella came towards Dad. She was carrying the bird very carefully. Bella dropped the bird in front of Dad. “Is it hurt?” asked Pete. “It seems all right,” said Dad. “But it’s frightened. “What kind of bird is it?” asked Pete “It’s a baby thrush,” said Dad. “Pick it up gently, Pete and we’ll find a safe place for it.” “How can we help it, Dad?” he asked. “We’ll put it under a bush,” said Dad, “If its parents are nearby, they‘ll come and feed it.” Pete put the baby bird down in the shade, “What does a thrush eat?” he asked Dad. “Thrushes eat worms, snails and insects,” said Dad. “If its parents don’t come today, I’ll call the Bird Rescue Centre,” said Dad. “Let’s bring the thrush inside,” Dad,” said Pete. Pete put some dry grass in a box, when he put the baby bird in the box; it squeaked and opened its beak. “It must be very hungry,” said Dad. He called the Bird Lady. She said, “Tonight you could feed it some hardboiled egg.” The thrush opened its beak wide and Pete dropped the food in. The next morning, Pete and Dad took the baby bird to the Bird Rescue Centre. The Bird Lady showed them around. There were lots of baby birds. There were birds with broken wings and birds with broken legs. “Your baby bird will stay here until it can fly,” the Bird Lady said.

The Swing BY ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON
How do you like to go up in a swing,
Up in the air so blue?
Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing
Ever a child can do!
Up in the air and over the wall,
Till I can see so wide,
Rivers and trees and cattle and all
Over the countryside—
Till I look down on the garden green,
Down on the roof so brown—
Up in the air I go flying again,
Up in the air and down
