Theme: Cooperation
Julinha and her family
Julinha lived with her family in a countryside area, far
from the city. Her father worked on the land.
He weeded, sowed, plowed and planted, but the money was
low and he couldn't buy many things. However, the family
had precious things that couldn´t be bought.
Everyone cared about each other and shared everything
they had, even if it was little.
In the morning, after everyone got up, they sat at the
table to have breakfast. Julinha's mother placed a clean
towel on the table and served bread that she made for
each one.
Her father milked Malhada, the cow very early, brought
the milk and poured a glass for each one.
After breakfast, Julinha and Junior, her brother, went
to school, which, due to being far away, required a good
walk from them.
Before leaving, Julinha went to the orchard and brought
some fruits that she shared with her brother to eat at
break time. Junior carried some materials from his
sister to relieve the weight she had to carry.
After returning from school, Julinha had lunch, played a
little and then went to do her homework.
One day, Julinha did not find her pencil when picking up
her material. After looking hard, she concluded that she
must have lost it on the way.
The girl was very worried and, almost crying, she
thought:
- How am I going to do my homework? I have to do an
essay to deliver to the teacher tomorrow!
Upon learning of his sister's problem, Junior soon went
to her, saying:
- Don't be sad, Julinha. I lend you my pencil.
Julinha thanked her brother and managed to do her
homework, happily.
After schoolwork, the siblings helped their parents with
household chores. They fed the animals, helped with
cleaning and tidying the house. There were no fights or
arguments. Each one knew what to do and did the
activities with satisfaction.
And so, cooperating and helping each other, everyone
lived well and very happy.
