The Little Brown Cookie Man
By Phyllis Naegeli
  

1     A little, brown cookie man sat on a rock. He was sad. A young boy was walking by. He stopped and looked at the little brown cookie man.
 
2     "Why are you sad?" asked the boy.
 
3     "I am sad because I am a cookie," said the little brown cookie man.
 
4     "I think it would be fun to be a cookie," said the boy.
 
5     "But then you would be a snack, and someone would want to eat you," said the little brown cookie man.
 
6     "Oh, I see," said the boy. "That is a problem."
 
7     The boy sat down next to the little brown cookie man, "Who made you?"
 
8     "A little old lady made me for a snack," said the little brown cookie man. "When I came out of the oven, I jumped and I ran. I have been running for a long time. A cow, a pig, and a dog all tried to eat me. I'm tired of running."
 
9     "I think I would be tired too," said the boy.
