Gertrude McCluck
and the Giant Carrot


By Mikaela Goben
Oklahoma

One day, a goat named Mikaela came to the water bowl. She saw a giant carrot in the ground. She tried to pull it out, but she could not pull it out.

But she called to one of her friends. He was a dog named Ike. Ike was very talented. So he came over. "Ike," Mikaela said, "I need you to pull on my back." So Ike did. But still it did not come out.

There was another friend named Jordyn. Jordyn was a pig. She was very nice and very good at not rolling in the mud. Ike said, "Jordyn, please pull on my back so we can pull out the giant carrot." So, Mikaela the goat, Ike the dog, and Jordyn the pig all tried to pull out the giant carrot. But it didn't budge.

Next came along Jackson, the cat. He was very cool. "Jackson," said Jordyn, "can you please pull on my back so we can pull out the giant carrot?" So, Mikaela the goat, Ike the dog, Jordyn the pig, and Jackson the cat, all pulled and pulled on the giant carrot. But it still didn't budge.

Mya the cow was another friend of Mikaela's. Mya was very playful. She liked to play tether ball. So, Jackson asked, "Mya, can you pull on my back so that we can pull out this giant carrot?" Then, Mikaela the goat, Ike the dog, Jordyn the pig, Jackson the cat, and Mya the cow all pulled and pulled and pulled. BUT the giant carrot still did not budge.

So they called McCluck. McCluck was the smallest animal on Bloom Valley Farm. "Pull on my back," Mya said, "so we can pull out this carrot." So, then Mikaela the goat, Ike the dog, Jordyn the pig, Jackson the cat, Mya the cow, and McCluck the chicken all pulled and pulled and pulled and...

POP...It came out!


The moral of this story is: No matter how small you are, you are always special.

Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith, and in purity. I Timothy 4:12
