Hettie the Bumble Bee had a broken wing. She had to get across the lake and Hettie couldn’t swim. She was thinking of a way to get to the other side. She had no ideas. So Hettie continued to sit and think of ways.
     Along came a frog hopping by. Hettie said to the frog, “Will you please help me across the lake? My wing is broken.”

     Will replied, “ I will help you because helping is a wonderful gift
