But instead, it sucked up a little bird.

“What if I use my father's old fishing net and fly high up to the sky to catch the cloud? “

He felt very sad and headed into town.

He climbed down the giant ladder and shared the precious water with his neighbours.

THE END © 2011 Paty Bugarini
We should all have realised how precious water is. We must not waste it.
We need to save water for the future.
