Mary Had a Little Lamb
"Mary had a little lamb who was as white as snow--he followed Mary everywhere no matter where she'd go. And then one day when Mary left he followed her to school--and went right in although he knew it was against the rule! For Mary told him often, "Lambs can't go to school, you see--and that is why you'll always have to wait outside for me." And then, when Mary saw him she could scarce believe her eyes--and all the children laughed and said, "This is a nice surprise!" But Mary's teacher smiled and said, "I'm very sorry, dear--a lamb is nice to have but you must take him out of here." So Mary took the lamb outside and felt so sad and blue--to think that he had done just what she's told him not to do. The little lamb was so ashamed and felt so awful bad--it almost broke his heart to see that Mary felt so sad. So he decided right away he wanted to be good--and said to Mary, "From no on, I'll mind you like I should." And that's exactly what he did--so starting there and then, he always was a perfect lamb--and never ba-a-d again!
