In a Box

“What is in the box?” said Jen.

“What do you think is in the box, Jen?” said Mom.

“I think a fox is in the box.” said Jen.

“No,” Mom said, “it is not a fox in the box Jen. The object in the box is not living.”

“Not living, it is not a plant or animal then. But you said an object. Then it is not empty.”

“No, it is not empty. Bring me the box,” said Mom.

“It is not a big box. It is ringing,” said Jen.

“Is it ringing? What is ringing, Jen?” said Mom.

“Is it a bell in the box?” said Jen

“Yes!” said Mom.
