when his friends came to play
he would hide his toys away!

Soon his friends stayed away
and he felt lonely until one day
he saw a lad he thought was poor
playing happily outside his door.

His toys were broken, none were new

yet he seemed happy - could this be true?

Just then the lad saw the lonely boy

and called, "Come and play, I'll share my toys".

"This is strange", thought the greedy boy
he's happy playing with those old toys,
I'll bring mine so that we can play,
