It is autumn. It is September. It is Pinky's birthday today. She is eight months. She has got two presents: Blackie's present and my present. Blackie's present is a small red ball and my present is a box of chocolates. Mrs Paw visits us in the morning. She gives Pinky a big birthday cake and goes home because she has got a baby son there.

Pinky makes tea for us. We drink tea and eat chocolates together. Then we play with a small red ball. We play and play. Pinky catches the ball with her teeth. Oh no! There is a hole in the ball. We can't play with it now.

Pinky is very sad. She cries.

"I have not got any presents now," she says. "There are no chocolates and there is not a ball."

"Please, don't cry!" I say. "We can go and play in the garden. There are a lot of apples on the grass. We can play with the apples."

We go to the garden and we play with the apples. When there is a hole in the apple, we eat it up and play with another apple.

Pinky is happy now. She likes apples. They are red, you can play with them and you can eat them.

It is winter. It is cold and it is snowing. We are in the living room. We are looking at the snow through the window.

"Let's go and play in the snow," says Pinky.

"No, it is too cold," says Blackie. "We can put on our warm coats and boots," says Pinky.

"I can't run in my boots. They are too big," says Blackie and he looks at me.

"I can't run in my coat. It is too long," I say and I look at Blackie. It is so warm in the living room and so cold in the garden.

"I see," says Pinky. "Don't run. Stand and look at me. My clothes are nice. I can run in my boots and my coat."

"We can look at you through the window," say Blackie and I.

"OK," says Pinky. "Don't go. Sit down on the sofa and look at me through the window."

So Pinky puts on her warm clothes and boots and goes out. She runs in the snow and she makes a snowman. She jumps in the snow and dances in the snow. She makes a snowball and throws it at her snowman.

We are sitting on the sofa and looking at Pinky. Then I stand up, take my warm coat and boots and put them on.

"Blackie," I say. "Put on your warm clothes, and let's go out. It is fun in the snow."

"It is too cold," says Blackie. "I don't want."

So I go to Pinky. We run in the snow and we make two snowmen. We jump and dance in the snow. We make snow-balls and throw them at our snowmen. We are having fun!

Suddenly we see Blackie. He is standing in the garden.

"Look, my boots are not too big," he says. "I think, I can run. Let's play together."

Now we play together and we are very happy.

It is very cold today. We are in the house. We are watching a film. It is about a mouse. Its name is Stuart Little. The film is very interesting. But, when I see a mouse, I am very hungry.

So I say:

"Let's watch another film!" "What film?" asks Blackie.

"Another film. Not about mice," I say.

"OK," says Blackie. He takes another film and we watch it. It is about a clown fish. Its name is Nemo. The film is very interesting. But, when I see a fish, I am hungry. So I say:

"Let's watch another film."

"What film?" asks Blackie.

"Another film. Not about fish," I say.

Blackie takes another film and we watch it. It is about a bird. Its name is Valiant. The film is very interesting. But, when I see a bird, I am hungry.

"Let's watch another film!" I say.

"Again?" cries Blackie. He is very angry.

"Oh Blackie," says Pinky. "I think, Reddy is very hungry. Let's have lunch. And then we can watch a film."

So we have lunch. Now I am not hungry and I can watch films about mice, fish or birds.
