The Clouds

From The New Barnes Reader:



White sheep, white sheep,
On a blue hill,
When the wind stops
You all stand still.

You walk far away,
When the wind blow;
White sheep, white sheep,
Where do you go?

OLD RHYME

The Wolf and the Goat

from the New Barnes Readers Book One



Wolf - I am very hungry. I would like a fat goat to eat. There is one on that high rock. How can I get her? I will go and talk to her.

Good morning, Mrs. Goat.

Goat - Good morning, Mr. Wolf.

Wolf - See the fine grass down here. Come and eat with me, Mrs. Goat.

Goat - Thank you, Mr. Wolf. You like to eat goats as well as grass. I will stay up here. Run along, Mr. Wolf.

Wolf - Look out, Mrs. Goat! Some day I will get you.
