Homer J Sunflower and Mean Joe Green Bean go to the River
One day Homer J Sunflower and Mean Joe Green Bean were walking to the river.
Homer J Sunflower was carrying a big bag of rocks.
"What are you doing with all those rocks, Homer J Sunflower?" asked Mean Joe Green Beans.
"I'm taking these rocks to the river so we can play a game," said Homer J Sunflower.
"What game is that?" asked Mean Joe Green Bean said.
"A good old fashioned game of rock toss," said Homer J Sunflower.
"That sounds like fun!" said Mean Joe Green Bean.
When they got to the river, Homer J Sunflower spread out a blanket and they ate their picnic.
They ate compost cups, fresh nitrogen nuggets and drank water from the river. It was a beautiful day for a picnic.
"This is the best picnic ever!" said Mean Joe Green Bean.
"I agree. Next time we will have to invite Flash Gourdon, he’s got a great throwing arm," said Homer J Sunflower.
After they finished their picnic, they played by the river.
Homer J Sunflower first threw three rocks into the water. Each one further than the next.
Next it was Mean Joe Green Bean’s turn. His first rock was thrown farther than all three of Homer J Sunflower’s three rocks.
“Wow, great throw Mean Joe Green Bean,” Homer J Sunflower said.
“Thanks,” Mean Joe Green Bean said.
“Let’s see who can make the biggest splash next,” Homer J Sunflower said.
They both had a lot of fun throwing rocks.
"I'm glad we came to the river," said Sunflower.
"Me too," said Mean Joe Green Bean.
