Slow Down, Henry!
A Life Lesson for Some of Our Favorite Little Friends and Also for Some of Our Not-So-Little Friends
By Meryle Wooster RubensteiniUniverse

Henry was always in a rush. He wanted to be first at everything. Henry thought that being first was very important!
Henry's mother was always telling Henry to slow down. Everyone was always telling Henry to slow down.
"Slow down, Henry!"
At school, Henry wanted to be the first one on the playground. He ran so fast that he forgot all about the three big steps that led down to the playground.
"Slow down, Henry!"
Henry fell and scraped his knee. His knee hurt so much that he couldn't play kickball at recess. Henry was disappointed. Henry's teacher said,
"Slow down, Henry!"
A few days later, Henry went to visit his Grandma Helen. Grandma Helen loved to bake pies. And Henry loved to eat Grandma Helen's homemade pies.
Grandma Helen had spent the whole morning working hard to make Henry his favorite pie. She had just taken the apple crisp pie out of the oven when Henry arrived at her house.
Henry ran straight into Grandma Helen's kitchen. The pie smelled so delicious that he could hardly wait to eat it.
He wanted to be the first one to have a piece of Grandma Helen's pie.
"Slow down, Henry!"
Henry grabbed the pie off the kitchen table and ...
SMASH!
The pie fell to the floor.
The pie was so hot that it burned Henry's hand. His hand hurt. And the pie was splattered all over the kitchen floor!
"Slow down, Henry!"
"Oh, Henry, are you okay?" asked Grandma Helen. Henry was okay, but he was very upset.
"Don't worry," said Grandma Helen with a smile. "I'll bake you another apple crisp pie next weekend. Maybe then you'll slow down and actually get to eat a piece of pie."
