Granny's Story Time- March

Robin Hop

Inside the nursery, peeps frantically sweep across the rooms. Granny whizzed past them and grabbed her storybook. "Today we will hear a story that  not many know, so sit cozily, and open your earlobes, and listen to this fairytale. 
 "Once upon a time, a little robin was born in  the winter. She was not allowed to play out in the snow. Her mother cradled her in her arms, and quietly, Robin said,'Mother, I have heard much about spring. I am going to find it. I suppose it's bored and wants to play. Can I try to wake it up?'  Mother said, 'Dear, spring is a thing that you cannot wake. Now go to sleep.' The next morning, Robin went down her tree. She ran quickly across the cold snow, and got back to the sidewalk. She started thinking about how spring played, and she hopped. She hopped and hopped and hopped and hopped. After she hopped many times, she started to see blades of grass, and she started to feel warmer. After so many hops, a butterfly appeared. She hopped till the end of the day, and it was almost spring. The next morning, little buds on the trees appeared. It was spring! The end." 
   "Can that really happen, Granny?" asked Angela. "No, dear. That could never happen. Or could it?" They all started hopping on the sidewalk outside. "I guess we should just take things the slow way." said Mary.

Granny's Story Time

Frosty the Snowman Peeps come from the nursery everyday. But today, the chicks just sit around and listen to stories and work on their lessons. "Granny, I found an old hat in the street today, and I want to use it to build a snowman!" said Rosie. "Not  today, my dear. It is much to cold. But I know a story about a snowman! " said Granny. "Tell us!" the chicks peeped. "Okay. Let me see here. Aha! Here it is! It's called, 'Frosty the Snowman.'  One day, in Magic Village, some young raccoons wanted something to eat. They found a carrot each. The young raccoons decided to make snowmen. One snowman they put a good spell on. The spell was for him to come to life! He came to life, just as they wished! When the snow started to melt, he ran around, making it snow again. The raccoons called him, 'Frosty.' He liked that name very much. Then some mean weasels started throwing things at him. The raccoons threw snowballs at them, and the ran ...

Get to meet the Citizens Here in Chicken Town we have allot of important people. Drake, Jemima and Rebbecca are the actors of the Old Grimy Water Circus. Just in case you didn't know, they are ducks. Not chickens. Betty runs the salon that is in front the tractor door in Chicken Town. First you will see the Chicken Hotel that is a big white building that the citizens sleep in at night. It is perfectly safe when Fifi and Speckles are here to the rescue. Their former names are Pussnboots and Blackshadow. If you didn't know, the circus is south of the hotel. Then slimy and dirty is the Chicken Cafe. This is where they chill and wait for the Charity Food people to come by. Then if you go west and turn to the north, you are very likely to find the Chicken Supermarket. Then go south and you will find the Morning to My Babe Restaurant that is very much like Apple Bee's. Then go west again and you will find the Chicken Town Police Office. You will find Baxter Futter. He...

Never to be Found Our friend, Rebecca Puddle Duck has not returned yet. Not a sign, a sound, nor a little path. We are all trying to accept the truth. She is gone. She must be dead, but still she has no grave. Drake is deeply worried about her. "I remember she would always interrupt family discussions with her somewhat adorable little squeak." The little chicks attend to their letters and sounds. Greta, a dear friend of Rebecca's wrote on her  paper, " c a t d o g d u c k" Her book wanted her to write "Robby, Mike, & Me." Instead, she wrote, " R e b e c c a P u d d l e  D u c k"  The teacher glanced over her shoulder. Greta started erasing it right away. Everybody in town is very very very very very sad. Something is wrong in Chicken Town. New Citizens On a beautiful Monday evening, Sally was coming to egg-sit for Frieda, the Norwegian chicken. She was standing beside her, smiling in her usual way. She began to speak, b...
