Mrs. Gobble was a  . Her
favorite food was stuffing and her favorite month was November.
Every Thanksgiving, Mrs. Gobble gave Mr. Gobble a gift. This
year, Mrs. Gobble had her eye on a special present. It was a
feather-scratcher. Mr. Gobble wanted one. He could never reach
the spot on the 10th feather that itched so much. The problem
was that Mrs. Gobble did not have enough money to buy the feather-scratcher.
Mrs. Gobble had an idea to make more money. She could walk around
the town doing  for other people. She started the next day
at 8:00 a.m. and she finished at 7:00 p.m. She was tired out.
Some of the jobs she had to do were: wash the dishes, dust the
floor, wash the tables, wash clothes,dry the dishes and dust
the furniture. She even gave a groom to some of the neighbors
pets. After a week, she finnally had enough money to buy the
gift. She gobbled to the store. A sign on the front door said
SOLD OUT OF FEATHER-SCRATCHERS. Mrs. Gobble was dissapointed.
She walked slowly to her house. Mr. Gobble was sitting on the
front porch. "I'm sorry", said Mrs. Gobble. "I
couldn't get you your suprise gift this year". "It's
alright", said Mr. Gobble. You gave me the best gift of
all, you ed so hard to buy me a gift. "I don't
care about the feather-stratcher", Mr. Gobble said while
he gave Mrs. Gobble a hug. |
