Read and Enjoy • Emotional Skills

Let us read a poem about how animals help us in different
ways.

Bees give us honey,

Cows give us milk.

Hens give us eggs,

And silkworms silk.

Sheep give us wool,

We make into clothes.
Animals help us,

In ways like these!

Dogs guide the blind,

And some herd sheep.

Some others guard homes,

When we are asleep.

Animals are pets,
Like a dog or a cat.

Animals help us,
In ways like that!

Word Meanings
herd: to keep or move animals together in a group; guard: to watch over in order to protect
