Lee digs a hole for a seed and waits and waits. A bee lands to see if it is a tree yet.
Lee got a seed.
"I will plant it," said Lee.
Lee digs a hole.
The seed went in the hole.
Lee feeds it. Lee waits and waits.
Each day, Lee peeks.
No green yet.
Then a bee lands on the hole.
"Buzz! Is it a tree?" said the bee.
"Not yet," said Lee. "It is a seed."
In a week, Lee can see a leaf!
"A seed can be a tree," said Lee.
"Buzz," said the bee. "I will wait."
