Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Sally. She had a silly, crazy crayon which she liked to take around with her.
One day, when Sally was playing in the garden, the crayon slipped out of her hand and rolled away. Sally went after it.
Sally saw the crayon slipping down the hill and said, "Oh no! My silly crayon is running away!"
She ran after the crayon, but the more she ran, the faster the crayon seemed to slip away. Suddenly, a wise old man appeared from behind the trees. He said to Sally, “Ah, foolish child, why don’t you just walk slowly after your silly crayon and pick it up?”
Sally thought about the wise man’s words and began to walk slowly after the crayon. Sure enough, in no time she was able to catch her silly crayon and take it back home.
