"What is that?" said Rose as she went down the garden walk. She saw Frank at work under the apple tree. "It is a little boat, Rose," said Frank. "What do you think of this boat?" "Oh, I think it is very pretty. Where did you get it, Frank?" "I made it, Rose. I made it all." "How glad I am that you made it! Will it float in the water?" "I think so. All it wants now is the sail. I will soon put that on." "How I should like to see it sail! Does mother know that you have made it?" "Not yet; but I will take it to her as soon as I have put the sail on it. Then, if she will let us, we will take it down to the river. We will put it in the water and see it float. We will see how fast it can sail." Soon Frank and Rose were on their way to the river. Frank said that if the boat sailed well, he would give it to Rose. She will let her doll sail in it. "Listen, mother, do you hear that?" "Yes, Henry, it is the wind. We can hear it blow about the house; but we can not see it. If you should go out of the house, you could feel it blow in your face." "See how it blows the leaves about! How fast Frank's little boat would sail with this wind!" Do you know when summer comes? When summer comes the days are warm and bright. Green leaves are on the trees. Flowers bloom in the woods and in the gardens. The wind blows softly. The sky is blue and the sun shines bright In the summer. The corn grows tall and green. It is then that the children play in the woods. I like the summer time very much. I wish my baby doll would wake. Wake up, baby! Wake up! Do not sleep so long. It is morning, and all good little dolls should be up. Oh, baby, what a care you are! Will you not wake up? I do not know of any doll that sleeps so long as you do. Now jump up, and see what a bright morning it is. See how the sun shines. Wake up, baby! Do you wish to know where I have been, baby doll? I have been down in the meadow with Frank and Rose. Shall I tell you what we saw? Well, we saw birds and bees and green leaves and pretty flowers. Then we went to the river and saw Frank's little boat sail on the water. Little Boy Blue, Come blow your horn. The sheep's in the meadow, The cow's in the corn! Where is the little boy that looks after the sheep? Oh, here he is! Here he is, fast asleep! Will you wake him? No, not I; For if I do, I know he will cry.
