Finally, he was there!  He spotted all the candy with his little duck eyes.  It all looked so good, and he picked out a red lollipop that cost exactly one dollar.  He paid for it and quickly ran home to enjoy it.

When Herman was almost home he looked at his lollipop and realized there were 2 lollipops stuck together!  He rally wanted to eat them both, but he knew he had to return the one he didn´t pay for.
