Mr. Putter & Tabby Pick the Pears

ZING!!!!!

Up, up, up.

Over, over, over.

Out of sight.

'Wow!' said Mr. Putter.

He was smiling.

Mr. Putter and his cat, Tabby walked among the juicy thing. Mr. Putter had loved pear jelly since he was a boy. They went to the backyard to using a ladder to pick the pear but a problem occurs. He had cranky legs, cranky knee, cranky feet, so he couldn’t get up the ladder. Tabby had cranky tail because of her age as well as Mr. Putter. He thought and thought and thought. He came up with an idea that he pick pears with  slingshot so he made his slingshot  immediately. After he made it, they went back to the pear tree. He put fallen apple in the slingshot and shot. Then the apple went flying up, up, up! He came to enjoy, so he shot it many time. It was gone when he noticed.  In addition to this, he notice that he got no pears.

 

I thought using a slingshot to get pears was an good idea! It’s because it enable to get it easily even if his legs were cranky.
