Once upon a time, there was a lively bird named Betty. She was always up for an adventure. One day, Betty got a wild idea. She wanted to try something totally new...she wanted to eat an oat!
Cheerfully, Betty asked her friend, "Will you have an oat with me?" He looked back and replied, "Yes, why not?!"
The two birds hopped over to a nearby oat patch and started to eat their fill. Betty was so excited, she chirped with joy. She had never tasted something so delicious before.
But then, a terrible thing happened. Betty remembered that her little brother was allergic to oats! How could she have forgotten?
Betty's friend stopped eating, shocked. In a gentle voice he asked, "Is your brother okay?"
Betty shook her head sadly and replied, "I don't know yet. I hope he is ok."
But the lively bird was determined to take care of her brother. Without wasting any time, she flew off to find him. 
When Betty found her brother, she was relieved to see that he had not eaten any oats. He told her what happened: he had felt something funny and itchy in his throat when they were talking about oats. So, he had run away, just in time.
Betty hugged her brother. She was so thankful that he had not been hurt.
