"Let's go camping," said Dog.
"No thanks," said Bat.
"I don't like camping," said Cow.
"The tent is too small."
"The woods are too dark," said Cat.
"And they are spooky."
"I am a watchdog," said Dog.
"The woods do not scare me."
Nobody wanted to go camping.
"Please?" Dog said.
"Please, can we go?"
"No," said Cow.
"I like the barn," said Cat.
"Maybe next year," said Pig.
Dog gave presents to everyone.
He did nice things for everyone.
Then he tried some silly tricks.
Everyone laughed and laughed.
"Okay, Dog," Cow said at last.
"We will go camping."
"Just one time," said Bat.
"We do not like camping," said Cat.
"Thank you, friends," said Dog.
And off they went.
