Oh, no! Barnaby’s big heart thumped. He grabbed his watering can. It was very, very big.

Splash! Water fell on the dirt. Barnaby hummed a soft tune. The flower stayed droopy. Barnaby frowned.

He watered it again. Splash, splash! He hummed a hopeful tune. The flower looked a tiny bit better. But not much.

Then, a big, green sprout pushed up! Barnaby gasped. A happy tune bubbled inside him.

He watered it one more time. Splash, splash, splash! He hummed a joyful song. The sprout grew taller.
