Rainy days were his favourite days. Little Worm was always ready for a rainy day. He pulled out his raincoat and put it on. He looked all over for his cap but could not find it. So he picked up his umbrella and came out of his home. Just then he felt a drop of water on his head. Little Worm's face brightened up. Then he felt a few more drops and then many more. Soon it was pouring, and little Worm's heart was filled with glee.

 

 

Little Worm saw his friend Big Worm approaching. Big Worm did not have a raincoat on or an umbrella. Little Worm went up to him and asked, "Big Worm, are you having fun in the rain?"
