The Pill Bugs & The Dragonflies

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 



 

 

 
Hey there, little Ember! 

 
I have a story to tell you about a little team of pill 

bugs rolling down a grassy hill... 
 

 
 



 
 
 
They looked at one another,  
“Who is going to go first??” 
So many arms a-pointin, all at one another. 
 
 
 



 
 
 
The dragonflies above them chuckled as they floated 
up & down, doing backflips, diving & arriving until… 
 
 
 
 



 
 
 

 

One bumped another, wings up all a flutter; 
the rest of them all joined in, tackling each other! 

 
 
 



 
 

 

They fell to the ground, knocking down a pill bug as 
it turned into a circle & knocked into another who 
then balled up like the other, none could recover as 

all began to tumble, down the hill they rumble! 
 
 
 



 
 

They laughed & they laughed,  
with tears in their eyes! 
 
They finally collapsed:  

the Pill Bugs & the Dragonflies.
