At night I sleep under a toadstool. All day I dance around the toadstool. One day I saw a little Baby bird fly down upon the ground, it was a blue jay. It was bunting for worms. It found a worm, and suddenly tbe blue jay flew to the top of the tree to her Baby birds and that was the end of tbe Pixie. Anthea Cadbury, Age 7. SPRINGTIME Spring will soon come, DafTodils bright. Spring will be here, Daffodils gay. Bringing with her. Nodding themselves Flowers each year. To tbe sun of tbe day. Tulips are pink. Tulips are red, Some are as white, As the snow that has fled.
