Page 30 - 1, 2, 3... Cufo Piglet is Learning to Save

“Hey! Cufo, where on earth are you? Don’t you know that goldlets have gone on
vacation and will not come back until after tomorrow?”
“Yeah, I know, I know! My dad told me about it this morning. That’s why I took
these two apples to you. Please, give me a bottle of milk. Cartoons will be on TV

right now and I’m in a hurry”.

“What can I do with apples, hey piglet!? I have as many as I need for myself
and my piebald calf. I need no more. But…, wait a moment! “, – said Piebald, on
reflection. “I think, I don’t have eggs at home. If you want a bottle of milk, run to
Hen, give both apples to her and take three eggs for me.

“Gimme a minute and
I’ll be right back!” - says

Cufo and hastens away
to dotty Hen.

“Aunt Dotty, aunt Dotty,
please, give me three
eggs because I need
them to pay for aunt

Piebald’s milk,” said Cufo
to her. “If you give me
the eggs, I will give you
these two red apples,” –
he added.
“Red apples?! I don’t eat
apples at all, either red or
yellow. Since I was little,
I have never had any of

them. If you had cherries,
oh yeah! I would give you
even five eggs for them”
– she said.
