"I should like to have Anna learn
to cook," said papa.

"O mamma, please teach me!" said
Anna.

"Some day you shall learn," said
mamma.

"I haven't time to teach you to-day."

Anna went to see grandma.

"Grandma, will you teach me to cook?"
she said.

"Yes, dear," said grandma.

"You may cook something to-day."

"O, thank you!" said Anna.

"It will please papa very much to
have me learn."

"It will be his birthday very soon,"
said grandma.

"You shall make him a birthday cake.
I used to when he was a boy."

Anna did her best to learn.

In a few days the birthday came.

Anna made the cake as she wished.

She took it to papa.

She set it near his plate.

"Well! what is this?" said papa.

"A birthday cake for you."

"Who made this cake for me?"

"I did," said Anna; "grandma showed
me how."

"Is it possible? did you make this
beautiful cake?

You are a dear girl!

I haven't had a birthday cake for a
long time.

It is very nice indeed."
