< Flying a Kite >

- George runs as fast as he can.

- George, you're doing it all wrong.

- The kite won't fly if there isn't any wind, no matter how fast you run.

- We just have to wait until the wind picks up a bit.

- Look, it's getting windy.

- I am a bit of an expert at these things.

- Watch out for the trees. You might get the kite stuck in one.

- Dad pig has got the kite caught in a tree.

- Dad will get the kite down.

- I don't want you covered in mud.

- Just a bit further, Daddy.

- Daddy pig, you are much too heavy for that branch

- Nonsense. I know exactly how heavy I am.

- Daddy pig has rescued the kite.

- Luckily, Daddy pig hasn't hurt himself.

- I suppose so. After all, you can't get any muddier. And I think daddy pig is going to be doing the washing.

- Jumping up and down in muddy puddles is just as much fun as flying the kite.
