A Stammering Bird

A Stammering Bird

John lives on a small farm. He cannot speak well. He stammers a lot when he speaks. 

One day he goes to a shop. He wants to buy a parrot. 

He says to the shopkeeper, “ D-d-do you have a p-p-parrot?” 

“ Yes, sir, ” answers the shopkeeper. “ Here is a fine green one. It understands everything. ” 

So John buys it and goes home with his bird.
