The Fox as Herdsman
Once upon a time, there was a woman who went out to
hire a herdsman to watch her goats, sheep, and cows. On her
way to find a herdsman she met a bear.

“Where are you going?” asked the bear.
“I’m going to hire a herdsman,” answered the woman.
“Why not have me for a herdsman?” said the bear.
“Well, why not,” said the woman, “if you only know how to call the flock. Let me hear you.”
“Ow, Ow!” growled the bear.
“No, no! That will not do,” said the woman. She went on her way.
When she had gone a little farther she met a wolf.
“Where are you going?” asked the wolf.
“I’m going to hire a herdsman,” said the woman.
“Why not have me for a herdsman?” said the wolf.
“Well, why not, if you can call the flock. Let me hear you call,” said the woman.
“Oooo, Oooo!” howled the wolf.
“Oh no, that will not do,” said the woman, and she continued walking.
After she had gone on a while longer she met a fox.
“Where are you going?” asked the fox.
“I’m just going out to hire a herdsman,” answered the woman.
“Why not have me for a herdsman?” asked the fox.
“Well, do you know how to call the flock?” asked the woman.
“Dil-dal-holom!” sang out the fox in a fine clear voice.
“That’s perfect!” said the woman. “I’ll have you for my
herdsman.” She sent the fox to herd her flock, and then she
returned home.
The first day the fox was herdsman, he ate up all the
woman’s goats, the next day he made an end of all her sheep,
and the third day he ate up all her cows. When he came home
that day the woman asked what he had done with all her flocks.
“Oh!” said the fox, “they are playing in the meadow over
the hill.”
The woman was busy churning cream when he said this,
but she thought she had better go and have a look at her flock.

The Little Captive from Wide Awake Stories

“Did you think you could get him? You can’t, if you try ever so
hard,” said little Bessie to her dog Carlo, as he sat by her side
on the grass, one fine summer’s day. As she spoke, she held
high above her head a dear little robin.
An hour before, while walking in the fields, she saw Carlo
in the distance, playing with something upon the ground. On
coming nearer, it proved to be a nest with one poor little bird in
it. Taking the bird away from the dog, she seated herself upon
the ground to smooth the little creature’s feathers, and calm its
fear.
After placing it in the nest, and covering it with her
handkerchief, she took it home, put it in a cage, and gave it
some food, which the bird seemed very glad to eat.
The next morning, Bessie arose very early, to see that her
little charge was all right, and to give it some breakfast. She
took very faithful care of it for several weeks, and by that time
it became strong, and could fly. Every morning it tried to sing,
as if in gratitude for what Bessie had done for it.
One day Bessie’s mother said to her that she must open
the cage, and let the bird fly away. “No, no, mother!” said
Bessie, “don’t say so. I take such comfort in him, I can’t let him
go.” But the next moment she remembered how unhappy it
made her to disobey her mother; and, taking the cage, she
opened the door.
To her great surprise, her little captive did not care to take
the freedom offered him. After a while he seemed to understand
that he was expected to come out of the cage; and what do you
think was the first thing that the little bird did? Why, he lighted
right on Bessie’s shoulder, as if he hated to leave her.

Item Prompt:
The author shows that Bessie is a caring person. Write a
paragraph telling how Bessie is caring. Use specific details from
the story to support your answer. Use the RACE Strategy.
