![]() And most importantly, Sasha says he wants to do the class next week. All the results were great - there were five beautiful flamingos at the end of it. He was in a class of five kids, and the teacher spent an hour with them online, drawing a flamingo. The outschool lesson is much, much more affordable. He’s very much into drawing, and he does already have his own personal tutor, who is good but expensive. Yes, my 11 year old son Sasha has just taken an outschool class called Let's Draw Birds: Step-By-Step Pencil Sketching ClubĪnd he really loved it. And I believe Sasha has been trying it out. It’s easy and affordable to sign up for a class. When you join Outschool, you will find a whole universe of online classes and after school clubs for your kids with experienced and talented tutors. We’re excited, because we really love this sponsor. In a minute or so, I’m going to be reading another donkey fable, but first, it’s time for the first of this week’s sponsors. Yes, maybe one day people will learn to appreciate his singing voice. It’s for sure that donkeys don’t naturally have good singing voices, but I do admire him for trying. And so the poor old donkey never made a successful career as a singer, however much he tried. Every now and then he stopped to sing for various creatures, but none of them appreciated his art. Of course he never found it, because it didn’t exist, but he kept on looking for ever more. ![]() The donkey left the lush green field, and headed off round the mountain in search of the musical spring that could help him sing beautifully. ![]() I’ll head off right away and find that secret spring.” But don’t tell anyone, because it’s a secret spring.” If you go and drink from that spring, your voice will be ten times better. You’ll know it, because it sings all sorts of heavenly tunes. Over on the other side of the mountain, there is an especially musical spring. “How awful, I mean good for you,” said the grasshopper, “Trying is all very well, and admirable, but if you want to be a great singer, you should take this top tip from me. I will never give up! People say I’m super stubborn. “Maybe you are going to need a few lessons to get the hang of this.” “Hmm,” said the grasshopper’s lead singer. All the baby grasshoppers were terrified and went to hide in the bushes. “But my request is of a different nature. “Oh yes, that will always be my personal number one,” said the donkey. We only have one tune, and the one that goes crickets,crickets, crickets.” “Oh good,” said the donkey, “because I have one little request.” “No problem at all,” said the lead-singer of the grasshoppers. I’m your biggest fan! I love your music and I go to all your concerts!” “Excuse me dear creatures,” he said, “I hope you don’t mind me interrupting your performance. So he worked up the courage to go over to the grasshoppers, and speak to them about their music. Even when I’m carrying a heavy load, I could sing to myself and be happy.” “If I could sing like those grasshoppers, I would never feel sad, and I would always be merry. Of course, although he was happy, his eyes still looked sad - donkeys can’t help looking like that.Īnyway, the donkey did a little dance - a kind of foxtrot - and swished his tail. “What delicious grass! What a delightful day! What wonderful music! How wonderful it feels to be alive on a day like this.” The donkey felt light and merry and exclaimed: The grasshoppers rubbed their legs together and sang their tiny hearts out. The sun was shining in the sky and the donkey’s big ears were filled with the delightful sound of grasshoppers. One day a donkey was nibbling on some green grass in the field.
