Lida’s father brought vegetables from the farm today.

Lida loves to draw pictures, so she decides to draw all the vegetables her father brought.

First, she starts with the limes and the tomatoes.

After that, she draws the cucumbers and the string beans.

Last, she draws the squash.

Meow-Meow the cat walks by while Lida is drawing.

“Ah, I want to draw Meow-Meow too!" says Lida.

"Where should I start?”

“Oh, I know!"

Snip, snip, snip....

Lida takes out her glue, and starts pasting things together.

“This is my picture of Meow-meow the cat!” says Lida happily.
