Sharptooth
Sharptooth was a Tree-dweller.
She lived a long, long time ago.
She did not have any home.
Nobody had a home then.
People wandered from place to place.
They had no shelter except the trees.
Each night Sharptooth slept in the branches.
Each day she hunted for something to eat.
Sometimes she was very hungry.
She had hard work to find enough food.
She could not go to a store to buy it.
There were no stores then.
She could not buy food of a farmer.
There were no farmers then.
All the plants were growing wild.
All the animals were wild, too.
Sharptooth was afraid of them.
That is why she climbed the trees.
