John was nine years old, and
he was a very naughty boy, so his mother always asked that he would behave better.
Then one day, after he had come
from school, John's teacher called his mother on the phone and said, "Did you
know, Mrs. Perkins, that John saved a boy when he fell into the river while we were
out for a walk this morning?" Mrs. Perkins was very happy when she heard this.
She thought," John is becoming a good boy." Then she turned to him and
said," That was your teacher. Why were you so brave to save one of your friends
when he fell into the river this morning?" But John did not look very happy
when he heard this. His face turned very red, and said," Well, I really had
to pull him out, because I pushed him in."
