Good morning welcome to stories with friends, I'm, Lulu and I work with the Buncombe County Public Library's, and we're here to share, reading and songs and our joy for all of that with you. Our first story today is by Margaret crew shank, illustrated by Dave Saunders, a red fox crept across the yard. His black tip tailed was twitching hard in the farmyard down by the pond.

B

His tail twitched hard for he heard the hens clucking away clock clock clock in their wire net pens. The hen house was next to the pond. Well, the hens, they didn't know the Fox was there, but the Jersey cow. She raised her hood to stare she'd been drinking down by the pond.

B

Well, the cow raised her head and saw something slink past the sty of the pig who was black and pink and lived very near to the pond. The Fox was seen as he slunk through the farm by the old collie dog, who rushed out of the barn and raced barking woof huh down to the pond.

C

The dog rest out with again get it.

B

Up and with while a gray kitten was taking a nap in the shade of a bush by the pond.

B

She set up and fight the little great kit. Then she narrowed her small eyes to a slit and stretched herself down by the pond. She narrowed her eyes, for she had seen dat, which of a hairy red tail with a pointy black tip. Who do you think that belonged to.

C

B

Can't went as she pounced on the tail and the Fox went yeah with a shattering well I'm going whoo whoo.

B

Well, the pig were drunk as the slept away. The dog won't roof as they joined in the fray. The couch hmm I'll enjoy this to the hens went cluck. What ahaha Baloo.

B

The pig went oink, the cat went you, the dog went move the Fox where, as the dog nipped his heels, the Jersey cow word and butted him, he fell right in the.

D

B

Look look that serves him right. Oh I gave him upright roof. I scared him away. Ooh.

E

I saved the day.

B

But the little gray kitten she winked her green eye and went back to sleep in the sun by and by.

F

The next story is three hens and a peacock written by Lester L, lamb, enak.

F

Three heads and a peacock.

F

Things were quiet on the Tucker's farm, the cows chewed their cud, the hens, cluck and pecked, and laid their eggs. The old hound stretched out on the porch watching and listening once in a while. Someone would stop to buy tomatoes or corn, perhaps a quart of milk.

F

Nothing unusual happened there until that peacock showed up the cows and the hens and the old hound kept right on doing what they'd always done, but that peacock had never lived on a farm. He had no idea what to do so. He spread his fancy, feathers and set to shrieking.

F

Eventually, the peacock wandered down to the road when cars whizzed by he shook his feathers and cried out in his loudest voice. Of course, folk stopped for a closer look.

F

Day after day, more folks stopped to admire the peacock and they all bought tomatoes and corn eggs and milk business on the tuckers farm was booming.

F

Everyone seemed happy to have visitors stopping by, but trouble was brewing in the henhouse. The hens were squawking and clucking and flapping their wings radim. All the luck around here, I'd like to see that peacock lay one single egg, exactly he just struts around screaming I suppose fancy feathers are more important than laying eggs.

F

That lazy, peacock gets all the attention and we do all the.

G

F

The peacock had heard every word for days. He möchten droning I, wish I could be more useful around here. Oh collect one hen, the others ruffled their feathers, the old pound stretched and slowly raised his head. Why not let the peacock stay here to be useful. While you hens, take the glamorous job down the road.

F

The three hens began clucking to one another plan. Yes, it's a fabulous idea, Oh, ladies. We simply must fancy up our feathers tonight and nothing, but our greatest beads, bagels and bows will stop traffic for sure. Why you girls, know I can strut with the best of them a peacock perked up.

F

Let's do it. He declared tomorrow. I'll stay here, sit on a nest and cluck and we'll get all gussied up said. The hands will be so glamorous.

F

At sunrise the next morning, the hens strutted down to the road, the peacock, marched right to the henhouse and poked his head inside the hens flocked by the road waiting for a car when they saw one approaching they clucked and squat and flapped their wings in a flurry of feathers.

F

But every car whizzed right on by the peacock sucked in his tummy and wiggled from left to right, trying to squeeze through the tiny hen house door. His front half was in his back. Half was out down by the road. Those hens tried every chicken trick. They knew still no car stopped.

F

Finally, the peacock made it into the hen house. He held his breath and pushed with all his might, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not lay a single egg, not on the old hound, stretched out on the porch watching and listening.

F

What's that peacock doing in the henhouse asked farmer Tucker, who knows said mrs. Tucker and what are those hens doing by the road not on one of them is up here laying eggs. Well, the way things are going. We aren't likely to have anyone buying eggs today said former Tucker. We need that peacock down there, stopping cars.

F

When the peacock heard that he smiled the biggest smile you ever saw on a birds, beak I am helping. He thought he squirmed back out and forth. Until he popped out of the cramped hen house, then he trotted off to find the heads.

F

The exhausted hens were all clucked out. Every feather was out of place. What a day we couldn't get one car to stop. It's true, why most of them didn't even slow down.

F

The peacock met the hens as they trudged up the road. I can tell you I'm no good at laying eggs. He said I'm just not meant, for it one hand, knotted I put on my stellar strut and even I. Couldn't stop a single car. She said I have to hand it to you. Fancy feathers, your job is harder than it looks. The other hens agreed the peacock looked relieved.

F

So the hens marched back to the hen house, the peacock strutted down low to the road. The old hound stretched out on the porch watching and listening, and things were quiet again on the Tucker's farm.

F

B

When I was a little bitty girl just above the floor, we used to go out to Grandma's house every month into so we do have chicken pot and country ham homemade butter on the bread, but the best Stern thing about grandmas house was a great big feather bed. It was nine feet: high 61, the downy chick it was made from the better the court. Let it be sir hold on a call.

G

For the kick it whole.

B

Day, kids, around dogs and piggy sold from the shed. We didn't get much sleep, but we had a lot of pot on grandma's feather bed. Well after supper, we sit around the fire. The old folks, spittin, chew Paul would talk about the farm in the war and my gurney sing. A ballad or two well I'd sit and listen and watch the fire till the cobwebs fill my head next thing. I know I'd wake up in the middle of the great big feather bed. It was my feet: high six feet wide and talk desi aunty chick.

B

It was made from the better support letter keys to go off for the tick it hold. A pizza for hound dogs led we sold from the shed. We didn't get much sleep, but we had a lot of fun on grandma's.

G

B

Bed well, I love my ma, I love, my Paul I love, granny and Grandpa too I went fishing with my uncle I wrestled with my cousin I, even kissed a loo yeah, but if I ever had to make a choice, I guess it ought to be said that I'd leave them all and the board on the road for the great big feather bed. It was nine feet. High six feet wide soft. As a mountie chick.

B

It was made from the better support letter G suit, although off for the tick it holy kids for hound dogs and a pity we saw over on the shed, we didn't get much sleep, but we had a lot of fun. Grandma's feather bed, we didn't get much sleep, but we had a lot of fun on.

On the other hand, he liked to lay in the hammock outside and watch everything happen around him and the little mouse being the little mouse enjoy the chair right by the fireside and there those three stayed day after day now, the hen with all those others lounging around had to do all the housework.

C

Every day, all day, cleaning dishes making food mending clothes, sweeping floors and not to even mention the yard, work, raking, weeding gardening for.

All she had on her mind was baking and she thought maybe she'd get some help. She asked who will help me make this cake from this beautiful flower that was just ground at the mill.

B

Well, the cat spread his whiskers and replied: oh not I, the dog buh-buh-buh said not I and the little mouse by the fireside said no.

C

B

The hen she stirred the batter, adding eggs and butter and sugar vanilla all those good things that make a fine cake. She turned on the oven and put it in soon. The kitchen started to smell a delicious things and the cat Oh stretched mmm and got off of the couch and the dog rolled out of the hammock and the mouse got out of his chair and squeak to the kitchen, and there I found the hen pulling a beautiful cake out.

B

She looked at them and said who will help me eat this cake and all replied me me me: she looked at them. She said where were you when I needed help planting the weeds and where were you when I needed help harvesting the wheat? And where were you when I carried all that wheat to the mill and then back and then me the cake? Where were you all the three animals they step back? They looked up on another.
