Greedy Dog

There once was a greedy dog named Max.

Dog with brown fur and wagging tail

Every day, Max would go to the park.

One day, Max found a big bone near a tree.

Max grabbed the bone and ran home quickly.

But when Max reached a river, he saw his reflection.

He barked, dropped his bone, and jumped into the river.
