Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lulu who loved to count things. One day, she counted all the stairs in her house and found there were sixty-two of them! Lulu was so happy that she decided to count more things.

She went outside and counted the flowers in her garden. She found seventy of them! Then she counted the trees and found seventy-one of them. Lastly, she counted the birds flying in the sky and found seventy-two of them.

Lulu was so proud of herself for counting all these things and she learned that counting can be fun and exciting. The end.
