Nick and the Old Man of the Mountain

Nick was a cute little sandy haired, blue-eyed boy. He was five years old and he loved the outdoors. One day he was out in the backyard playing when he noticed a hole in the fence behind a bush. He thought he might crawl through the hole to look at the mountain behind his house.

So he did. He snuck through the hole in the fence and he was having a big time. He walked along and heard the birds’ chirping. All of a sudden he saw a rabbit running up the path. He followed it.

The further he went up the mountain he saw a deer run across the path. He thought that was really neat. The little deer ran backward and forward across the path. Nick kept watching and looking at everything around him. He thought this was the best day he had ever had.
