Bill found a big bug in the garden. He brought it inside in a tin and showed it to Nick. Suddenly, they couldn't find the bug. Where could it be?

Bill and Nick were playing in the garden when Bill found a big bug. Excited, he brought it inside in a tin and showed it to Nick. They were both amazed by the bug's appearance and spent some time examining it. However, as they continued their play, they suddenly realized that the bug was missing. They searched everywhere, but couldn't find it.

Bill and Nick were puzzled. They couldn't understand how the bug could disappear so quickly. They searched under the furniture, in the cupboards, and even in the backyard, but the bug was nowhere to be found. They were confused and worried.

As they continued to search, Bill had an idea. He remembered that there was a small hole in the tin where the bug had been sitting. He suggested that the bug might have escaped through the hole and gone into the house. Nick agreed, and they both set out to find the bug.

They searched through every room in the house, but the bug was nowhere to be found. They were about to give up when Nick remembered that there was a crawl space under the house. Without hesitation, they went down to the crawl space and began to search.

After a long time, they finally found the bug. It was hiding in a corner, scared and alone. Bill and Nick carefully picked up the bug and returned it to the tin. They were relieved to have found it and wondered how it had managed to escape.

From that day on, Bill and Nick made sure to close the tin tightly whenever they brought a bug inside. They also learned to be more careful when playing with bugs in the garden, so that they didn't lose them again.

The incident taught Bill and Nick a valuable lesson about the importance of being careful and responsible when handling animals and insects. They also learned that sometimes, even when something seems lost, there is always a chance that it might be found.
