Rocket and his teacher, a little yellow bird, are in love with words.   They decide to find words to add to their “word tree”.  As Rocket finds different items like a star, leaf, tree, or bird, he drops them on bird’s command. But when he finds a boot, Rocket will not drop it.  He likes the boot.  Is there anything that will convince Rocket to drop the boot?
