S 110 Gardening
Pepper and George are playing at Granny pig and Grandpa pig’s house.
“Grandpa, catch !”
“Catch”
“What’s this ?”
“Dine-saw ! Grrrrrr……!”
“A dinosaur hooo…!”
“Grandpa, what are you doing ?”
“I’m planting these seeds.”
“Seeds ? What do seeds do ?”
“Seeds grow into plants. I just make a little hole and put the seed in. Then I cover it with earth and water it. Everything in my garden, grows from tiny seeds like these.”
“Even the big apple tree ?”
“Oh ! Yes ! This tiny seed……will grow into a little apple tree, like this.”
“Ooh”
“And that little apple tree , will grow into a big apple tree like this.”
“Ouch ! Mmmm !”
“And inside this apple are more seeds.”
“To make more apple trees !”
“Exactly !”
“Grandpa ! Grandpa ! I want to plant a seed ?”
“Would you like to plant a strawberry seed !”
“Yes, please !”
“this seed will grow into a lovely strawberry plant. First make a little hole.”
“Then I put the seed in and cover it with earth.”
“Shall I water it for you ?”
“NO NO, I want to water it.”
“Good ! Now we wait for it to grow.”
Pepper and George are waiting for the seed to grow.
“It’s not doing anything !”
“Hooo……,You will have to be patient. Pepper, it will take a long time to grow.”
“Peppa ! George ! It’s time to go home.”
“But we’ve waiting for my strawberry plant to grow ! I wanted strawberries for teas.”
“Don’t worry , Peppa ,next time you come, the seed will have grown into a plant.”
“And we will have strawberries !”
“Yes”
“Come on, Peppa.”
“Bye, bye, Grandpa. Bye bye, strawberry.”
Grandpa pig looks after Peppa’s strawberry plant. After many days. Grandpa pig finds a tiny plant growing. Day by day, the plant grows bigger and bigger. Then one day. Grandpa pig finds something very special.
“Strawberries !”
“Grandpa ! we are back !”

“Grandpa ! Grandpa ! Did my plant grow ?
“Yes ! Look !”
“Ooo”
“Strawberries !”
“Thank you ! Grandpa !”
“Grandpa, can we plant something else ?”
“Yes ! Now, it’s George’s turn to choose.”
“Yes ! You choose. George. Choose……a carrot.”
“Grandpa, I think George wants to grow a carrot.”
