Thulani loved to bask in the sun all day | because he was lazy and the sun was hot. |
Thulani sold his cow and then he | bought a goat. |
Thulani had to sell the goat because | it ate their store of dried corn. |
Thulani traded the billy-goat for | a fluffy sheep full of fleece. |
Thulani could not sleep in the sun while he owned the sheep | because he had to care for it and stop it from straying or being eaten by predators. |
Thulani wanted to sell the sheep | because it was hard work shearing the fleece. |
Thulani sold the sheep | and bought three geese. |
Thulani had to sell the three geese | because he needed the money to buy seed. |
Thulani and his wife were surprised when the seed sprouted because | they were sunflowers and not mealies. |
When the sunflower seeds dropped off | Thulani fed the seeds to the hens. |
The hens liked the sunflower seeds | and layed more eggs than they usually did. |
Because Thulani had more money from the extra eggs | he bought sheep, and then later, a cow and then many more animals. |
Thulani liked milking the cow best | because that was when his best thoughts came to him. |
