Miss Buddy's Big Day

Ronald L. Harmon

Mr. Harmon first met Buddy – a most charming and endearing bird - at a shopping mall. Two shoppers had taken a moment to admire the little grey bird. On seeing this Mr. Harmon decided he needed a new friend and it was going to be a bird. Buddy needed a place to live, too, and wanted to come home with Mr. Harmon.

At her new home, Buddy took over many of the daily chores. She would take care of the tearing up of important papers, organize postage stamps, and answer the telephone. There were special days for play and enjoyment with her friends, too. She found her life very nice and the days when her best friend, Sheila, came to visit or came for lunch were just super duper.

Each day became an adventure for both Mr. Harmon and especially little Buddy. Her new home was a very good place to live and both Mr. Harmon and Buddy were delighted. Life from the point the little bird moved in became filled with adventure and every day - because there was a bird in the house - was a big day indeed.
