"What a bright June day! The air is pure. The sky is as blue as it can be.
Lucy and her mamma are in the woods. They have found a nice spot, where there is some grass.
They sit in the shade of the trees, and Lucy is singing.

Lucy's kind mamma says that they will have a picnic when her papa can get a tent.

Now the ball is lost. They all look for it under the trees and in the grass; but they can not see it. Where can it be?
