seed story by Ruth Kraus pictures by

Crockett Junction a little boy planted a

carrot seed his mother said I'm afraid

it won't come up his father said I'm

afraid it won't come up and his big

brother said it won't come up

every day the little boy pulled up the

weeds around the seed and sprinkled the

ground with water but nothing came up

and nothing came up everyone kept saying

it wouldn't come up don't get your hopes

up honey sorry son but he still pulled

up the weeds around it every day and

sprinkled the ground with water what do

you say Leona do you think it will come

up well if it comes up it'll be a happy

ending if it doesn't come up it'll be

sad and then we'll all hate the book and

it won't sell and the author won't make

any money and the publisher would go out

of business so it has to come up and
