Pip's Ten Hens
Pip the pig sat in his tub. It was a hot day, and Pip felt wet and good. Then Pip saw his hens. His ten red hens were out! They were not in the pen. "Oh, no!" said Pip. The hens ran by the pen door. The door was open. Pip got up, and he was wet. Wet ran off his legs. Pip went to the hens. "Come on, hens," said Pip. He led the ten red hens back. One by one, they ran in. Pip set a peg to hold the door. "Now you are in," said Pip. He fed the ten hens well. Then Pip sat back in his tub. It was a good day.
