Farida plans a feast
Author - Maegan Dobson Sippy
Farida goes for a walk every evening.
She takes an empty tiffin box
and a big water bottle.
First stop, her kitchen.
“Can I have some uncooked rice, please?”
Two skips
sabji thela lagta hai.
“How many squashed tomatoes can I take today?”
Three hops
to the tea stall.
“Any broken biscuits?”
Four jumps
to the beach.
“I hope you kept the smelliest fish for me!”
Five leaps
to the potter’s shop.
“Did you save me the chipped bowls?”
Uncooked rice!
Squashed tomatoes!
Broken biscuits!
Smelly fish!
Chipped bowls!
What is Farida planning?
Meow! Meow! A meal for the cats
Woof! Woof! Snacks for the dogs
Caw! Caw! Treats for the crows
Cheep! Cheep! Dinner for the sparrows
There is nothing left in the tiffin box…
... until tomorrow!
