Number Two was walking along a path when suddenly she heard a sob coming from underneath a bush, ‘I..I..I'm lost.'
Number Two peered underneath the bush and caught sight of a big grey chick.
‘Who's your mummy?' Number Two asked the baby bird.
‘My mummy's the biggest, most beautiful bird. She looks like you,' the chick cheeped.
‘Don't cry; we'll find her,' Number Two replied.
She put the baby bird on her tail, and they went to look for its mummy.
Soon Number Two caught sight of a huge bird sitting in a field.
‘Have you lost a baby, big bird?' Number Two asked politely.
‘I'm not a bird; I'm an aeroplane. Aeroplanes don't have babies,' the aeroplane replied.
‘Cheep cheep, that's not my mummy. My mummy looks like you,' the baby bird declared.
All of a sudden, Number Two saw a white bird with a neck as long as hers, swooping down from the sky.
‘My baby swan, I've been looking for you everywhere!' the bird cried .
‘Mummy, this is Number Two. She's been looking after me , ' the chick chirped.
‘Thanks for your help Number Two . You're very kind, and look just like a swan.'

Everybody has two ears,
For listening and hearing.
They're stuck on each side of the head
It's really quite endearing!
People also have two eyes,
Please treat yours with great care.
Your eyes ...
