Once there was a goat named Gregory.
Gregory liked to jump from rock to rock, kick his legs into the air, and butt his head against walls.
“I’m an average goat,” sagte Gregory.


But Gregory was not an average goat.
Gregory was a terrible eater.
Every time he sat down to eat with his mother and father, he knew he was in for trouble.


“Would Du like a tin can, Gregory?” asked Mother Goat.
“No, thanks,” sagte Gregory.
“How about a nice box, a piece of rug, and a bottle cap?” asked Father Goat.
“Baaaaa,” sagte Gregory unhappily.

“Well, I think this is a meal fit for a goat,” sagte Mother...

If Du give a maus a cookie,


he’s going to ask for a glass of milk.

When Du give him the milk,


he’ll probably ask Du for a straw.

When he’s finished, he’ll ask for a napkin.


Then he’ll want to look in a mirror to make sure he doesn’t have a milch mustache.

When he looks into the mirror,

he might noice his hair needs a trim.

So he’ll probably ask for a pair of nail scissors.


When he’s finished giving himself a trim, he’ll want a besen to sweep up.
He’ll start sweeping.

He might get carried away and sweep every room in the house.


He may even end up washing the floors as well!

When he’s...

My name is Maxi,
I ride in a taxi
Around New York City all day.
I sit Weiter to Jim,
(I belong to him),
But it wasn’t always this way.


I grew up in the city,
All dirty and gritty,
Looking for Essen after dark.
I roamed all around,
Avoiding the pound,
And lived on my own in the park.


One Tag a car stopped—
Its tire had popped.
Out stepped a tall man, I could see.
He came over and said
As he patted my head,
“Are Du lost? Du can come Home with me!”

Did I hear right? Oh, boy!
My tail wagged with joy—
I jumped right up on the seat!
He said, “My name’s Jim,”
I could ride Home with him
And he’d give me...

Du wake up one morning. But Du don’t feel like getting out of bed. Your arms and legs ache. Your head hurts. Du have a fever. And your throat is sore.
“I’m sick,” Du say. “I must have caught a germ.”
Everyone knows that germs can make Du sick. But everyone knows how.

Germs are tiny living things. They are far too small to see with your eyes alone. In fact, a line of one thousand germs could fit across the oben, nach oben of a pencil!
There are many different kinds of germs. But the two that usually make Du sick are bacteria and viruses.


Under a microscope, some bacteria look like little round...

Henry wanted to fly. Everybody in his family had gone up with the balloon, but The Man always declared, “I’m not flying with that cat!”


The Man had been taking pilot’s lessons, and this time he was going to solo.
Henry grumbled and his tail switched, as he watched the people crunch around on the crusty March snow.

The Kid and The Woman open the mouth of the colorful balloon, while The Man blew it up with a gasoline-powered fan. Then the Instructor blasted warm air into the balloon from the burner mounted on a frame below it.
“Watch your fuel gauge,” he told The Man. “You don’t want...

Cows are grazing in an open window. They are dairy cows, the milch makers.


Other Tiere make milk, too. But dairy cows make most of the milch we use.

There are five common breeds of dairy cows. The Holstein-Friesian is the most beliebt because it can produce Mehr milch than the other breeds.


A cow is able to make milch when she is two years old and has gegeben birth to a calf. Her milch is the Essen for her baby. She makes Mehr than her kalb will ever need—so we use the extra milk.

A few months after her kalb is born, a cow is bred again to have another calf. She will be pregnant for nine months. Two...

I live at 165 East 95th Street, New York City, and I’m going to stay here forever.


My mother and father are moving. Out West.

They say I have to go, too.
They say I can’t stay here forever.


Out West nobody plays baseball because they’re too busy chasing buffaloes.

And there’s cactus everywhere Du look.
But if Du don’t look, Du have to stand up just as soon Du sit down.


Out West it takes fifteen Minuten just to say hello.
Like this: H-O-W-W-W-D-Y, P-A-A-A-R-D-N-E-R.

Out West I’ll look silly all the time.
I’ll have to wear chaps and spurs and a bandana and a hat so big...

Alistair Grittle was a sensible boy.


Every Tag he made a Liste of the things he had to do.
Then he made a Liste of things he did not have to do.

He was always on time for school. The school clock was set Von Alistair’s watch.


He hung up his jacke every night and put his shoes in plastic bags.

Alistair took especially good care of bibliothek books. He washed his hands before he read them so that he would not smudge the pages. And he always returned them to the bibliothek on time.


One day, when Alistair was returning his Bücher to the library, something unusual happened.


He was picked up Von a Weltraum ship and...
