The next morning, she walked among her flowers, but there were no signs of

any one having been there the night before.

On the following night, she was again awakened by sweet singing and babieslaughing. She rose and strolled quietly through her garden. The moon was shining

brightly on the tulip bed, and the flowers were swaying to and fro. The old woman

crooning and rocking the flower like a cradle. In each tulip, lay a little fairy baby,

laughing and playing.

The good old woman smiled and returned to her house. From that day on,

she never picked a tulip nor did she allow her neighbours to touch the flowers.

[Comprehension OE 1]

Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow. Write

your answers in complete sentences.

Anna drew Papa extra tall. The top of his head touched the edge of the

paper. She gave him wide shoulders and a big smile. She made his eyes very blue.

Then she put Mama next to him, holding his arm. Mama came up to his

shoulder. Papa often joked about how small Mama was. He could rest his chin ontop of her head.

Anna gave Mama a smile too but her crayon slipped as she did it and

Mamas smile was crooked. Anna tried to fix it. She scratched at the wax with her

fingernail. It flaked off but it left a smeary mark.

Anna looked down at Papa, so tall, so happy. She drew a new smile on

Mamas face over the place where the crooked one had been. This time the smile

was fine but you could still see where she had made the mistake.
