Once a little yellow duck went for a walk. As it the went along the road, it met a green kitten. “Mew mew”, said the kitten. Oh said the little duck, what a pretty way to talk, I wish I could talk that way. But little duck could not say “mew mew”, all it could say was m-ack, m-ack. And that was not pretty at all. The little yellow duck went on the road, soon it came to a big dog. Oh, said the little duck, what a pretty way to talk, I wish I could talk that way. The little went on, by and by it saw a pretty bird, “tweet tweet”, said the bird, Oh said the little duck, what a pretty way to talk. I could I could talk that way. But the little duck found that it could not say “tweet tweet”. Little yellow duck was not happy, it could not say mew mew, it could not say Bow-wow, so the little duck went home. Mother duck saw it coming “quack, quack”, oh said little duck, this is a very pretty way to talk, I think I will talk that way too.
