The Lost Feather by Simma “Well, I never!!” said little Heather as she turned in the mirror. “I’ve lost a feather. No wonder I can’t fly. I must begin a search.
Heather hurried to the forest. As she was wandering through the cedars, she spied a curly caterpillar hiding under a purple flower. “Excuse me, Mr. Caterpillar,” she said in a worried voice. “I’ve lost a feather and I can’t fly. Have you seen it in the cedars?” “I have never ever seen your feather,” answered Mr. Caterpillar. “Perhaps you should search by the harbor.”

Heather scurried to the harbor.

Have you seen it in the harbor?” “I have never ever seen your feather,” answered Mrs. Turtle. “Perhaps you should search by the river.”
Heather hurried to the river. As she wandered along the bank, she spied a slender alligator resting in the water. “Excuse me, Mr. Alligator,” she said in a worried voice. “I’ve lost a feather and I can’t fly. Have you seen it in the water?”

As the alligator lurched from the water, Heather ran faster than ever before. And she never ever looked back to find her feather.
