Sam’s grandpa lives in a quiet village near the mountain and river. He is old, but he is strong and hard-working. There is a lot of work in his garden. But he is happy to work there. He gets many fresh vegetables because of his hard work. He would share the vegetables with friends. He sends them to Sam’s family in the city, too. This weekend, Sam comes to Grandpa’s garden with his dog. He helps Grandpa pick the apples. “Don’t pick all of them”, says Grandpa. Sam doesn’t understand. Grandpa says, “The apples in the basket are enough for us. Those on the trees are for the birds.”
