Page 25 - 1, 2, 3... Cufo Piglet is Learning to Save
P. 25
It would be great to discover where parents do find them. Maybe, they have
found some hidden treasure. Or they find them on the street, just as Shelly snail
did with Cufo’s lost goldlets.
A brilliant idea struck Cufo. Why not
ask Shelly where money is found.
Definitely, he is closer to the land
than pigs are. That’s why nothing
slipps his mind.
“No, Cufo, no, hey balloon! Money
is found neither on street, nor on
lawns”, - said Shelly, laughing at the
piglet’s question. Adults earn money
because they work. Money earned
from working is called ‘wage’.
“And me? Where can I find a
wage, Uncle Shelly?”, - said Cufo
sadly. “I have to find a wage to
buy the red bicycle”.
“Cufo, you are still a kid. And
kids don’t work and don’t get
wages. They go to school and
get grades. Anyway, if you
behave well and help your mom
with the household chores,
certainly, she will help you get
the money you need”.
