didn't laugh. Instead, she said:
"Quiet, if you please! Fold your paws, everybody! Now, that the
little pigs have come to school we must see how much they know, so
we can tell what class to put them in." So she said to Curly:
"Spell cat:"
"D-o-g," spelled the little pig boy.
"Wrong," said the teacher. "I guess you will have to go in the
kindergarten class." Then she said to Flop Ear; "Spell boy."
"G-i-r-l," spelled Flop.
"Wrong," said the teacher. "You, too, will have to go in the
kindergarten class. Now, I wonder if either of you piggy boys can
make a paper bird in a cage."
So she gave each of them a pair of scissors and some red paper, and
blue and pink and yellow and brown and all colors like that.
