Sound-and-Say words
1. One day, Joan took her new book and sat under the shade of a big tree.
2. "I shall read about Bo-peep," she said aloud.
3. "Yes," said a voice, "but what good is that? No one ever tries to help me."
4. Joan looked up. There stood Bo-peep with her crook in her band.
5. "I don't know what we shall do for wool this winter, if I do not find the sheep," she said.
6. "Are they down by the brook?" asked Joan.
7. Bo-peep shook her head sadly.
No, she said, "I have looked there, and in the wood, too."
8. Just then, they heard the bleat of a sheep.
Did you hear that? said Bo-peep.
It is my pet lamb. I call her 'Soft-foot.' She will help me to find the others.
9. She took up her crook and ran off.
10. "Good-bye, dear little Bo-peep," said Joan. "I do hope you find your lost sheep."
