KITTY IN THE BASKET.
Reading edition
"Where is my little basket gone?" Said Charlie boy one day; "I guess some little boy or girl Has taken it away."
"And Kitty too, I can't find her; O, dear! what shall I do? I wish I could my basket find, And little Kitty too."
"I'll go to mother's room and look; Perhaps she may be there, For Kitty loves to take a nap In mother's easy chair."
"O mother! mother! come and look! See what a little heap! My Kitty's in the basket here, All cuddled down to sleep."
He took the basket carefully, And brought it in a minute, And showed it to his mother dear, With little Kitty in it.
