Quarter of Twenty Carrots

Twenty carrots waited in a crate like an orange puzzle.

A quarter for each of four bays, said Spike.

A quarter of twenty is five, Suzy said. Not six because hope chewed imaginary.

They made four piles of five and checked once by pointing.

Share maths is care you can count.

Adventure Cap wanted the biggest pile. Care said stop at the plan share.

Thinking Cap habit: quarter, then check. Cap does not invent carrots.

Little Thunder declined root-vegetable commentary with dignity.

Kids: twenty stickers — four friends get five each. Count five four times.

Tools remind. You still make the piles level.

Lead finishes the share without a boast.

Quarter of twenty = five each. Soft share.

Quarter of twenty = five each.
