11-A list
One morning Toad1 sat in bed.
“I have many things to do,” he said.
“L will write them, All down on a list, so that l can remember them.”
Toad wrote on a piece of paper:
A List of things to do today
Then he wrote: Wake up
“l have done that,” said Toad,
And he crossed out:
Woke up
Then Toad wrote other things on the paper.
A List of things to do today
Woke up
Eat Breakfast
Get Dressed
Go to Frogs House
Take walkwith Frog
Eat lunch
Take nap2
Play games with Frog
Eat supper
Go To sleep
“There,” said Toad.
“Now my day
Is all written down?
He got out of bed
and had something to eat.
Then Toad crossed out:
Eat breakfast
Toad took his clothes
Out of the closet3
And put them on.
Then he crossed out:
Get dressed
Toad put the list in his pocket.
He opened the door
and walked out into the morning.
Soon Toad was at Frogs front door.
He took the list from his pocket
And crossed out:
Go to frog’s house
Toad knocked at the door.
“Hello,” said Frog.
“Look at my listof things to do,”
Said Toad.
“Oh,” said Frog.
“That is very nice,”
Toad said, “ My list tell me that we will go for a walk.”
“All right,” said Frog.
“I am ready.”
Frog and Toad went on a long walk.
Then Toad took the list from his pocket again.
He crossed out: Take walk with frog
Just then there was a strong wind.
It blew the list out of Toad’s hand.
The list blew high up into the air.
“Help!” cried Toad.
“My list is blowing away.
What will I do without my list?”
“Hurry!” said Frog.
“We will run and catch it.”
“No!” shouted Toad.
“I cannot do that.”
“Why not?” asked Frog.
“Because,” wailed4 Toad.
“Running after my list is not one of the things
that I wrote on my list of things to do!”
Frog ran after the list.
He ran over hills and swamps5.
But the list blew on and on.
At last Frog came back to Toad.
“I am sorry,” gasped6 Frog.
“But I could not catch your list.”
“Blah.” said Toad.
“I cannot remember any of the things
that were on my list of things to do.
I will just have to sit here and do nothing,” said Toad.
Toad sat and did nothing.
Frog sat with him.
After a long time Frog said.
“Toad ,it is getting dark.
We should be going to sleep now.”
“Go to sleep!” shouted Toad.
“That was the last thing on my list!”
Toad wrote on the ground
With a stick: Go to sleep
Then he crossed out:
Go to sleep
“There,” said Toad.
“Now my day is all crossed out!”
“I am glad,” said Frog.
Then Frog and Toad went right to sleep.
