Lemon

 

The Lemons every summer go

In groups to see the Wild West Show;

Come rain or shine, they never stay

At home on any circus day.

 

Assemble a mini doll sized book: Right, is the lemon's illustration and verse. Visitors can collect all the vegetable illustrations and verse from "Mother Earth's Children" to print and construct a small book of verse for their dolls. Simply drag each png. into a Word Document, print, cut out all of the images the same size and staple the pages together at the left edge. Squeeze out some white school glue along the stapled edge of the pages and attach a cardboard cover.

       "Why don't you make animals as well as people out of fruits and vegetables, children?'' said Papa one day.
       Why hadn't they to be sure? They had never thought of such a thing, but when they did it was not long before the place was stocked with all sorts of strange animals.
       The first piece of vegetable live stock the little Wests owned was a lemon pig which Uncle John made for them from a lemon, two white headed pins, and four toothpicks.
       With a knife a small gash was cut for a mouth; then ears were cut from the skin. These were left fastened to the lemon at the front edge.
       Then pigs must have pens! So pens naturally followed pens of corn cobs put together in rail fence fashion.
       Later in the season there were acorn pigs in pens made of sticks and straws." Walker
