All God’s creatures are good!

Laura Remmerde

Amanda and Juniper lived on a ranch with lots of animals. They loved their pony, Candy, their kittens, and their dog, Thorn. What Amanda didn’t like very much, though, was the wasp that stung her three times one day when she was sitting in the living room, reading. Someone had left the door open, and a wasp had flown in and was perched on the rocking chair when Amanda climbed in.

Amanda cried, and Mama came running. The wasp stings hurt a lot, and Amanda was angry and upset. She couldn’t seem to stop crying.

Just then, Juniper came in and wanted Amanda to come outside and play, but Amanda didn’t want to. She said she wanted to lie down.
