“Hey Jack, come over here, time for another story.”
''Oh goody.''
“This one's about an angry flower. So it started like this. I was fast asleep in bed. But one minute later I was up listening to a roaring flower (A daisy). It was growing fifty feet tall.
Every body looked at me.”
''What did you do'?”
''I just stood there; let’s get on with the story.''
''Ok.''
“So where were we up to? Ah yes, they were staring at me hopefully. So I went up to the flower and said, ''Why are you so angry'?'
''I am angry because I don't want to be a daisy.”
''Why'?”
''Because lots of people pick daisies'.”
''But you are so lucky, now that you are so tall, nobody can pick you'.”
''I will report this to the boss of the town so you won't die'.”
''Thank you.”
“So that flower did not die for a long time.
Let’s go have some cookies.”
