My Grand Mother

A grandmother was telling her grandson a story about his grandfather. It went like this : 

When your grandfather was a little boy he wanted a toy gun for Christmas that costed $50.00 dollars. And everyday he would tell his daddy what he wanted and how much it costed. Well, Christmas morning came and he unwrapped his gift and it was a Bible. He was so upset that he never even opened the box the Bible was in. Years later, after his fathers death, he was going through some stuff in the attic and found that old Bible. And he opened it, flipping through the pages and a 50 dollar bill fell out. 

The little boy looked up at his grandmother and said, 'Why didn't he just tell him there was money in there?' and his grandmother said, 'Why didn't he just read the Bible?'
