Dick Finds a Friend
A long way from Green Hills was a farm. On this farm lived a little boy. His name was Dick Wills,
Many animals lived on this farm. They were Dick’s good friends. He had names for all of them.
Dick had many things a boy would want. But he did not have a boy to play with.
Farm Hats
One day the twins went to see Dick’s farm.
Penny had on a big farm hat. Pat had on a big farm hat, too.
Dick laughed and said,
“Your hats are just like my hat. Where did you get them?”
Pat said, “Father gave them to us.”
“Hats are good things to have on a farm,” said Dick
Then the twins went with Dick to see his garden.
