1.The ducks were walking in a line to the door of the Greggs' house, swinging their arms and holding their beaks high in the air.

2.'Stop!' called the tiny Mr Gregg, flying down low over their heads. 'Go away! That's my house!'

3.The ducks looked up and quacked.

4.The first one put out a hand and opened the door of the house  and went in.

1.The others went in after him. The door shut.

2.The Greggs flew down and sat on the wall near the door.

3.Mrs Gregg began to cry.'Oh, dear! Oh, dear!' she sobbed.

4.They have taken our house. What shall we do?

5.We have no place to go!'Even the boys began to cry a bit now.

1.'We will be eaten by cats and foxes in the night!' said Philip.

2.'I want to sleep in my own bed!' said William.

3.'Now then,' said Mr Gregg. 'It isn't anygood crying.

4.That won't help us. Shall I tell you what we are going to do?'

5.'What?' they said.Mr Gregg looked at them and smiled.

1.'We are going to build a nest. ''A nest!' they said. 'Can we do that?'

2.'We must do it,' said Mr Gregg. 'We've got to have somewhere to sleep. Follow me.'

3.They flew off to a tall tree, and right at the top of it Mr Gregg chose the place for the nest.

4.'Now we want sticks,' he said. 'Lots and lots of little sticks.

 

E

1.Off you go, all of you, and find them and bring them back here.'

2.'But we have no hands!' said Philip.

3.'Then use your mouths.'

4.Mrs Gregg and the children flew off. Soon they were back, carrying sticks in their mouths.

5.Mr Gregg took the sticks and started to build the nest.
