A Little Piece of Yarn
Snip! A woman cut a piece of yarn from the sweater she'd just finished making. "This piece of yarn is so small. I think I have—."
The little piece of yarn stood up on the table. "Wait, don't throw me away. I may be small, but I can be useful. Really. I can. I can... I can... Do you like to read? Use me as a bookmark. Or you can use me to sew on a button. Or—or—you can use me to make sandpaper pictures. Or... Or..."
The little piece of yarn was quiet long enough for the woman to say, "I'd never throw you away. I know how useful you can be. Don't worry." The woman hunted through her knitting basket and pulled out a bag that held many little pieces of yarn. "There's plenty of room for you in here."
And late at night, when the woman was asleep, all the pieces of yarn had a party to celebrate their new friend.
