William Everett クロコダイル, ワニ lived on the banks of the River Nile with his mama.
One 日 Mama said, "William Everett, now that あなた have nice クロコダイル, ワニ teeth, we must go to Mr. Hippo's store and get あなた a toothbrush before あなた start school tomorrow."
William Everett liked Mr. Hippo's store because it was full of things. He and Mama walked up one aisle and down another.
They stopped in front of the toothbrush counter. "You may choose your own toothbrush, William Everett," Mama said.
William Everett looked and looked.
"Hi!" 発言しました a toothbrush. "What's your name?"
"My name's William Everett. What's yours?"
"Pete," 発言しました the toothbrush.
"I found the toothbrush I want, Mama," 発言しました William Everett. "His name is Pete."
"Good," 発言しました Mama. "We can go ホーム now."
So Pete became William Everett's toothbrush.
And his best friend, too.
The 次 morning Mama said, "William Everett, wake up. It's time to go to school."
"Oh, Mama," William Everett said. "I can't wait to read and write and learn all about クロコダイル, ワニ history."
"Someday, I will be proud of you, William Everett," Mama said.
"Now, class," 発言しました Ms. Ibis. "Today, we are going to learn the alphabet. Then we will be able to write our names. Now, repeat after me...."
The little crocodiles repeated after Ms. Ibis.
"A-B-C-D-E-F-G...."
They 発言しました the whole alphabet.
They 発言しました the letters over and over again until they knew all of them によって heart.
"Well, William Everett," 発言しました Mama. "What did あなた learn in school today?"
"William Everett, say the alphabet," 発言しました Pete. William Everett 発言しました every letter without a mistake.
"Oh, William Everett," Mama said. "That was beautiful."
The 次 day, Ms. アイビス, イビス taught the class how to write all the letters.
The little crocodiles wrote the letters over and over until they could write them によって heart.
"And what did あなた learn today, William Everett?" Mama asked.
"William Everett, write the letters," 発言しました Pete.
William Everett wrote every letter without one mistake.
"You're so smart, William Everett," Mama said. "Someday, あなた will be famous."
"Today, class, we are going to write our names," 発言しました Ms. Ibis.
She showed all the little crocodiles just what letters each one had in his または her name.
They wrote and wrote and wrote and smiled and smiled and smiled.
The letters spelled out: Sam-Jane-John-Kay-Kate-Tom-Amy...
They all wrote and smiled some more.
All except William Everett. He had so many letters in his name that he kept forgetting at least one of them.
Poor William Everett.
Big tears ran down his nose.
"Is something wrong, William Everett?" Pete asked.
"I'll never learn how to write my name," he cried. "It has too many letters."
"Now, now, William Everett," 発言しました Pete. "I think I can help あなた to write your name and not forget any letters."
He took a pencil and wrote.
"Did あなた learn something today, William Everett?" asked Mama.
"Yes, Mama, I learned to write my name," 発言しました William Everett.
"Oh, Bill." Mama beamed.
One Saturday, when there was no school, Bill and Pete went down to the River Nile and sat on the bank in the sun. A man on a bicycle went riding by.
Behind the bicycle were cages filled with crocodiles.
"I wonder what that's all about?" 発言しました Bill.
"That's the Bad Guy, and those crocodiles are on their way to Cairo-to become suitcases," 発言しました an old クロコダイル, ワニ swimming by. "Watch out he doesn't catch you!"
But he did. The very 次 Saturday.
Bill and Pete were fishing and they didn't hear the Bad Guy creep up behind them.
The Bad Guy lassoed Bill and put him in a cage. He didn't pay attention to Pete.
Pete tried to peck the Bad Guy, but Pete was just too small.
Poor Bill!
He was on his way to Cairo.
All he could think about was suitcases.
メリダとおそろしの森 Pete!
He stayed close to his friend.
The Bad Guy put Bill in his garden and went into the house.
"Run me a nice hot tub, Jeeves," the Bad Guy 発言しました to his butler. "I will take a bath before dinner. I got me another クロコダイル, ワニ today and I need a nap. Call me when the bath is ready."
"Tomorrow that クロコダイル, ワニ becomes a suitcase," he added.
"Not if I have anything to say about it," 発言しました Pete. "I'm もっと見る than JUST a toothbrush."
And Pete picked the lock with his beak.
"Quick, Bill. Let's get out of here," 発言しました Pete.
"No, I'm mad!" 発言しました Bill. "I'm going to make sure there are no もっと見る クロコダイル, ワニ suitcases."
Bill climbed the wall.
He crept through the living room into the bathroom.
"Your bath is ready, sir," 発言しました Jeeves.
And there was Bill, right with the rubber ducky.
The Bad Guy jumped out of the window and didn't stop running all the way to Cairo.
"Oh, look, a nice dinner," 発言しました Pete.
"And am I hungry," 発言しました Bill.
"Mama, あなた don't have to cook ディナー for us tonight," Bill 発言しました when they got home. And he told her what had happened.
"Oh, Bill. Oh, Pete," Mama exclaimed. "What an adventure. I am so proud of the two of you."
