William Everett 악어 lived on the banks of the River Nile with his mama.
One 일 Mama said, "William Everett, now that 당신 have nice 악어 teeth, we must go to Mr. Hippo's store and get 당신 a toothbrush before 당신 start school tomorrow."
William Everett liked Mr. Hippo's store because it was full of things. He and Mama walked up one aisle and down another.
They stopped in front of the toothbrush counter. "You may choose your own toothbrush, William Everett," Mama said.
William Everett looked and looked.
"Hi!" said a toothbrush. "What's your name?"
"My name's William Everett. What's yours?"
"Pete," said the toothbrush.
"I found the toothbrush I want, Mama," said William Everett. "His name is Pete."
"Good," said Mama. "We can go 집 now."
So Pete became William Everett's toothbrush.
And his best friend, too.
The 다음 morning Mama said, "William Everett, wake up. It's time to go to school."
"Oh, Mama," William Everett said. "I can't wait to read and write and learn all about 악어 history."
"Someday, I will be proud of you, William Everett," Mama said.
"Now, class," said Ms. Ibis. "Today, we are going to learn the alphabet. Then we will be able to write our names. Now, repeat after me...."
The little crocodiles repeated after Ms. Ibis.
"A-B-C-D-E-F-G...."
They said the whole alphabet.
They said the letters over and over again until they knew all of them 의해 heart.
"Well, William Everett," said Mama. "What did 당신 learn in school today?"
"William Everett, say the alphabet," said Pete. William Everett said every letter without a mistake.
"Oh, William Everett," Mama said. "That was beautiful."
The 다음 day, Ms. 따오기, 이 비스 taught the class how to write all the letters.
The little crocodiles wrote the letters over and over until they could write them 의해 heart.
"And what did 당신 learn today, William Everett?" Mama asked.
"William Everett, write the letters," said Pete.
William Everett wrote every letter without one mistake.
"You're so smart, William Everett," Mama said. "Someday, 당신 will be famous."
"Today, class, we are going to write our names," said Ms. Ibis.
She showed all the little crocodiles just what letters each one had in his 또는 her name.
They wrote and wrote and wrote and smiled and smiled and smiled.
The letters spelled out: Sam-Jane-John-Kay-Kate-Tom-Amy...
They all wrote and smiled some more.
All except William Everett. He had so many letters in his name that he kept forgetting at least one of them.
Poor William Everett.
Big tears ran down his nose.
"Is something wrong, William Everett?" Pete asked.
"I'll never learn how to write my name," he cried. "It has too many letters."
"Now, now, William Everett," said Pete. "I think I can help 당신 to write your name and not forget any letters."
He took a pencil and wrote.
"Did 당신 learn something today, William Everett?" asked Mama.
"Yes, Mama, I learned to write my name," said William Everett.
"Oh, Bill." Mama beamed.
One Saturday, when there was no school, Bill and Pete went down to the River Nile and sat on the bank in the sun. A man on a bicycle went riding by.
Behind the bicycle were cages filled with crocodiles.
"I wonder what that's all about?" said Bill.
"That's the Bad Guy, and those crocodiles are on their way to Cairo-to become suitcases," said an old 악어 swimming by. "Watch out he doesn't catch you!"
But he did. The very 다음 Saturday.
Bill and Pete were fishing and they didn't hear the Bad Guy creep up behind them.
The Bad Guy lassoed Bill and put him in a cage. He didn't pay attention to Pete.
Pete tried to peck the Bad Guy, but Pete was just too small.
Poor Bill!
He was on his way to Cairo.
All he could think about was suitcases.
메리다와 마법의 숲 Pete!
He stayed close to his friend.
The Bad Guy put Bill in his garden and went into the house.
"Run me a nice hot tub, Jeeves," the Bad Guy said to his butler. "I will take a bath before dinner. I got me another 악어 today and I need a nap. Call me when the bath is ready."
"Tomorrow that 악어 becomes a suitcase," he added.
"Not if I have anything to say about it," said Pete. "I'm 더 많이 than JUST a toothbrush."
And Pete picked the lock with his beak.
"Quick, Bill. Let's get out of here," said Pete.
"No, I'm mad!" said Bill. "I'm going to make sure there are no 더 많이 악어 suitcases."
Bill climbed the wall.
He crept through the living room into the bathroom.
"Your bath is ready, sir," said Jeeves.
And there was Bill, right with the rubber ducky.
The Bad Guy jumped out of the window and didn't stop running all the way to Cairo.
"Oh, look, a nice dinner," said Pete.
"And am I hungry," said Bill.
"Mama, 당신 don't have to cook 공식 만찬, 저녁 식사 for us tonight," Bill said when they got home. And he told her what had happened.
"Oh, Bill. Oh, Pete," Mama exclaimed. "What an adventure. I am so proud of the two of you."
