Said the Ink-Bottle Babies, “Without any doubt,

It is time to get our umbrellas out!”

When the Ink-Bottle Babies woke up next morning they cried, “Oh Ma! Oh Pa! It is raining!”

Sure enough, the rain came splash, not a gentle patter, but splash! splash! splash!

“Oh! oh! oh!” cried all the Ink-Bottle Babies. “How can we get to school in the rain?”

The Ink-Bottle Mamma said, “I will get your umbrellas.”

The Ink-Bottle Papa said, “I will get your rubbers.”

Then the Ink-Bottle Babies said, “Hurrah for rubbers and umbrellas! Hurrah for a rainy day!”
