Jimmy Must Go to School

Jimmy is seven years old now. He must go to school. He must learn to write and to read. Jimmy is very lazy. He cannot get up early. He cannot sit with a book. He is too lazy. Jimmy's sister Polly is not lazy. She is a very good girl. She can read, write, and count. Jimmy cannot count at all. He cannot write, but he can draw very well. He can draw a glass in ten minutes. He can draw a bottle in twenty minutes. He can draw a saucer in twenty-five minutes.

Sam can read, write, and count. But he cannot draw at all. Jimmy can draw a horse, a goat, a camel, a cat, a dog. He can draw birds and animals. He can draw a pine or a fir tree in three minutes. I can draw a table or a box. But I cannot draw an animal.
