One day when I went outside, I bent down to tie my shoe. I saw a huge grasshopper. I cupped my hands so it could stay in my hands. I made it stay on my finger. It started to clean its feet. It circled its antennas and put it in its mouth and the circle got bigger and bigger. Then it did the same thing with its other antenna. And then I laid him on the mailbox. Then I put him on my finger. Then I put him on the ground. Stout sniffed the grasshopper and the grasshopper hopped in the air. Stout tried to bite it. I thought that wasn't so safe. So I took him and put him on the tree next to the mailbox. That's where he lives.
