Once upon a time there was a hen who wanted to grow carrots. So she planted some carrot seeds on her garden. The carrot seeds GREw and grew. They grew and grew and grew. One day the hen went out to check her carrots. She could not believe her eyes. There was an enormous carrot. The hen pulled and pulled it again. But she could not pull up the enormous carrot. So she went to the dog. "Help me pull up that enormous carrot, she said."I will help you," said the dog. The hen and the dog pulled and pulled it together. But they still could not pull it up. So the hen went to the cat. "Help us pull up that enormous carrot," she said. "I will help you," said the cat. All three of them pulled and pulled it together. But the carrot wouldn't still come out of the ground. So the hen went to the mouse. "Help us pull up that enormous carrot," she said. "I will help you," said the mouse. The hen, dog, cat and mouse pulled and pulled it together. Up came the enormous carrot! That evening they cooked the enormous carrot and ate it all together.
