In a big city, there lived a lovely family. They had two children. One was called Elizabeth and the other called Larry. Larry was 13 and Elizabeth was 11. They had a kitten called Daisy. The two children loved the kitten so much. The kitten was a little black and white kitten and had the sweetest face you could imagine.
One day, the children were playing in their garden and had left the door open by mistake. Daisy ran outside and climbed the tree, not realizing that the tree was quite tall. The two children caught a glimpse of Daisy’s tail so they ran to the tree hoping it was their imagination but, when they looked up, they saw their little black and white kitten up in the branches of the tree, frightened to death. The children were very worried because their parents might take Daisy away from them. They each tried to climb the tree. Larry almost got her but he slipped. Daisy tried climbing down but, when she looked down the tree, she didn’t dare to climb down.
The two children thought and thought of a way to get Daisy down. Daisy went to sleep on a big strong branch while the two children thought of a good idea. They went to get a ladder and lent the ladder against the tree. Elizabeth climbed up the ladder and picked up the kitten, took her inside and closed the door carefully so the kitten wouldn’t get stuck in the tree again.
After that day, they never left the door open again, so they lived happily ever after.
