Lightfoot and Dido stood looking at one another for a few seconds. It was the first time the goat had ever seen a bear, for though there were wild animals in the park where Mike used to drive him, Lightfoot had never been taken near the bear dens. But it was not the first time Dido had seen a goat.
“Do you like raspberries?” asked Dido, pulling a branch toward him with his big paw and stripping them off into his big red mouth.
“I don’t know,” answered the goat. “I never ate any.” “Help yourself,” invited Dido. “Just reach out your paw and with your long claw-nails strip off the berries into your mouth.”
“But I haven’t any paw,” said Lightfoot.
“That’s right, you haven’t,” observed Dido reflectively, scratching his black nose. “Well, you have a mouth, anyhow, that’s one good thing. You’ll have to pick off the berries one by one in your lips. You can do that.”
“Yes, I think I can do that,” answered Lightfoot, and he did. At first the briars on the berry bush stuck him, but he soon found a way to keep clear of them. Dido did not seem to mind them in the least. #story #kidsstory AcreSoft Story Classic✝️❣️🗺️ acresoft.com cointr.ee/acresoft
