Once upon a time there was a family of five. Mommy and Daddy, big brother and little sister, and their pet rabbit.
One day in the spring, the family decided to plant some corn. Mommy, Daddy and the kids grabbed their gardening tools and set to work.
Big brother worked hard, planting the seeds in neat little rows. Little sister carefully covered them up with dirt. Then they took turns watering the ground.
Finally, the corn was growing! As it grew, it started to act like an independent little plant. It reached for the sun and swayed in the breeze.
The family watched it each day and smiled. As time went by, the corn grew even bigger and bigger. 
Finally the day arrived when it was big and juicy enough to pick! The family gathered around the patch of corn and clapped their hands in excitement.
Big brother spoke up. "Let's pick it now! I'm so hungry I could eat a whole ear of corn!"
Momma laughed. "Let's eat some for dinner tonight. It looks like the perfect time to enjoy our corn!"
