Look, mamma' ! See what a pretty fish! It is a little trout. Where did you get it, John ? Frank caught it out of the brook. I went to dip a dish into the brook to get some water, and I saw this little fish. Then I said, "O Frank, look, look quick! See the little fish!" Frank saw it, and ran to get his fish net. He put the net into the water, and caught the fish, and I put it into this dish. Well, what will you do with it? But, my boy, it will not live in that dish. Put it back into the brook. I wish I could keep it. It is so pretty! May I put it into the pond? No, John. You must put it. into the brook. A trout will not live in warm water. got NEW WORDS. jŎl'ly romp bread fox eat fond åft'er meat O yes, and he is very fond of me. We romp, and play, and have a jolly time with each other.
