Socks for supper by Jack Kent In a far away place in a long ago time, there lived an old man and his wife. They were very poor. All they had was a tumbledown house in a tiny turn up garden. One day, he said to his wife, one can get tired of eating nothing but turnips. Not far away there lived a couple who had a cow. The old man and his wife used to look at the cow and dream of milk and cheese. Maybe they'll sell us some, said the old man. We don't have any money, his wife reminded him. Perhaps we could trade them something for some milk, said the old man. Perhaps we could. His wife agreed, and they searched the house for something to trade. They looked and looked, but the only thing they could find that wasn't in pieces or tatters was a pair of socks.
