Bee Story by Alex Evan

:

When I was small, probably 5 years old, I was following the big kids around. When they started bothering a bee hive, I did not know what they were doing. I saw them poking the ground. So I went over to help them poke. While we were poking, I saw lots of bees coming out of the hive. I got scared and ran. The bees chased me and I got stung and started to cry. FinaIly I ran into the smoke house where they were smoking dryfish. There the bees left me alone because of the smoke. So that's how I learned not to bother bees or bee hives.
