The moon had gone behind a cloud and there weren't many stars in the sky.

It was a dark night. I saw a glow in my neighbor’s kitchen. I thought he was

having a midnight snack so I went back to my bed.

Soon, there was a burning smell in the air and I suspected something was

wrong. At once, I jumped out of bed and went downstairs to investigate. I

saw fire coming out of my neighbor’s kitchen. Instinctively, I shouted "Fire!

Fire!" But there was no one nearby to hear my shouts for help.

I rushed into my house, called the Fire Department and went back to my

neighbor’s house. I rang the doorbell, banged on the door and called out my

neighbor’s name but there was no response. I managed to break into the

house and rescued a cat and a rabbit.

I tried to throw buckets of water through the kitchen window but it was no

use; the fire was too strong. Luckily, a fire engine arrived and the firemen

put out the fire. They arrived in the nick of time as the fire was going to

spread to the other rooms in the house.

When my neighbor came back, he was sad because his kitchen was a wreck

but he thanked me for calling the Fire Department and for saving his pets.

He wanted to give me some money as a reward but I did not accept it.

Weeks later, my neighbor repaired and restored his kitchen. He invited me

to his new kitchen and there he gave me a medal that he had specially

ordered from a factory. It made me very happy.

A duck tale

The bright morning rays shone through the bedroom curtains onto Farmer Huang's pillow;

making the room hot and stuffy. Farmer Huang is not an early riser but the heat woke up

him. He hurriedly got up and started to head for his poultry farm. He had invested all his

money in ducks.

Farmer Huang got into his lorry that was loaded with ducks in cages and his two workers,

Bill and Jim. Their first stop was City Primary School. Upon reaching the school gate, the

lorry skidded and punctured a tyre. Farmer Huang left his workers to change the tyre while

he went into the school canteen to hand over some ducks.

Meanwhile, a boy had crept up the lorry and opened some of the cages. Jim happened to look

up; the boy jumped down from the lorry and ran into the school compound. The ducks were

escaping! Jim and Bill hurriedly tried to get the ducks back into the cages but their efforts

were in vain. There was a great commotion ... ducks quacking, workers shouting.

Where was the naughty boy? He was at the school gate letting some ducks into the school.

On hearing the noise, many children came out of their classrooms and were watching the

funny sight ... two men chasing ducks which were quacking, waddling and flapping their wings

which in turn sent down feathers floating in the air! It was hilarious.

Farmer Huang came back just in time to catch hold of the boy. He then went after the

ducks. He made a funny quacking sound and the ducks began to come to him. He happily put

them back into their cages, changed the punctured tyre and drove off ... leaving the boy in

the hands of the school principal.

Mouse and His Bug

Once there was a mouse

who lived in a great big house.

The mouse had a pet bug

which lived in his mug.

The mouse wasn't very happy

when his bug jumped into his favourite rug.

The mouse made the bug stay in his mug

and forbade it to go near the rug.

The bug just wouldn't listen

and jumped onto the rug

This time, the mouse was furious

and squashed it with his mug

Mission Fishing

One bright and sunny day, I felt like fishing. So I

packed what I needed ... fishing rod, hooks, weights

and of course, worms for bait.

When I reached the jetty, I put a worm on the hook

and threw the line in and waited for the fish to bite.

I was disappointed when I did not catch anything

after waiting for three hours.

I pulled in the line and to my surprise, there was a

small fish at the end of the line. The fish was so

small that I did not feel any tug on the line.

I was even more surprised when the fish started to

talk, "Let me go or I will turn you into a frog!" I was

so startled that I just stared at it. The next

moment, I was already a frog ...
