I Want to Fly as Fast as a Fighter Jet
I want to fly as fast as a fighter jet
Not me, his sister said.
I want to fly as fast as a hummingbird.
This made the little boy giggle.
Fighter jets fly faster! He said.
Look it up, said his sister.
Because she already had.
So she knew hummingbirds fly twice as fast as fighter jets.
Now, he knew too…
Which meant he stopped giggling.
