Then answer each question.  \nGrimbletoes and the Milk Pail  \nGolly-Grue and Grimbletoes were two dwarves who lived deep in the forest. Golly-Grue had long, white braids. Grimbletoes had a long, white beard. The two had been together more years than people could count, and they loved each other very much.  \nOne bright, summer day, Grimbletoes went out to the pasture to milk the cow. He got two full pails of milk. He lifted them onto a pole to carry over his shoulders. Grimbletoes whistled as he walked through the woods and smiled as the sun shone on his face.  \nGrade 2 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \n“Golly-Grue can make lots of butter and cream from this milk,” he said. “I can take the extra milk to market and sell it.” Grimbletoes whistled as he thought of all the things he could buy with the money. Maybe he could get that new rake he’d been wanting. Maybe he could get Golly-Grue anew set of mixing bowls.  \nGrimbletoes kept walking through the forest. “Maybe I could get those nice, new boots,” he said. He was still thinking about what he could buy once he sold the butter and cream. “Maybe I could get GollyGrue a pretty new hat.”  \nA slight breeze brought the scent of leaves and flowers. Grimbletoes paused to enjoy the smell. A fox laid at the base of a tree and  \nwatched Grimbletoes. It, too, was enjoying the warm day.  \n“Good afternoon, friend Fox,” Grimbletoes said. He set his buckets on the ground and stretched his shoulders.  \nGrade 2 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \nThe fox watched with one eye, while the other eye stayed closed.  \n“This really is a beautiful day,” Grimbletoes said. “I  \ncan’t wait to get this milk home for Golly-Grue to make into butter and cream.”  \nThe fox kept his eyes closed.  \n“I can take the butter and  \ncream to market,” Grimbletoes  \nsaid. He leaned back against the tree and closed his eyes. The sun shone warmly on his face. “We can use the money for cloth for new curtains.” He tugged his beard. “We can get a new wheelbarrow.”  \nA few moments later, Grimbletoes fell sound asleep while thinking of all the things he could buy after they had sold all the butter and cream. The fox rose from its resting place and tiptoed over to the milk. He lapped it up as quickly and quietly as he could.  \nWhen he’d taken all he wanted, he dashed off into the woods.  \nGrade 2 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \nA while later, Grimbletoes jumped to his feet. He had not meant to fall asleep. He looked around for his buckets and found one almost empty. “Dog leaves and horse flowers!” he cried. “Now there won’t be enough for market. I should never have stopped.”  \nA sad Grimbletoes carried his one bucket of milk back to his house. There would be no extra butter or cream. There would be no new rake or cloth. There  \nwould be no new wheelbarrow. There would be no new boots.  \n“Where have you been?” GollyGrue asked when Grimbletoes placed the milk pail on the table.  \nHe told her his tale.  \nGolly-Grue laughed. “Well, maybe next time you’ll  \nremember not to count your chickens before they are hatched.”  \nGrimbletoes sighed. “Maybe I will.”  \nQuestions:  \n1.
