Dance the Fairies gave at the top Of
Mountain Peak for their friends the
Clouds" said Daddy
The Fairies had had such a good
time at the Dance the Clouds had
given that they wanted to make theirs
a huge success, too.
1T was a cool day. and Mr.. Sun was
shining hard while MIR Wind was hay-
ing an argument with him as to wheth-
er it was a warm day or not
Mr. Sun said it was nice and
warm, for he was working hard and
seeing that everyone was warm Then
Mr.. Wind said il was a fine cold day
for he was blowing hard. They al
most had quarrel about it. and then
they overheard some Grown-Cp say.
Its warm in the sun today. but
otherwise it's really quite cold for the
Wind has a sharpness TO ii. SO that
settled the dispute for then they both
knew they were right.
Well. il was just the sort of a day
the Fairies wanted for their Dance.
