A thunderstorm was coming, and the wind was blowing. The little girl
helped her mom bring in the clothes from the clothesline, and her
brother picked his toys up out of the yard. Then it began to thunder.
It started pouring down
rain. The little girl and her brother ran outside to roll up the
car windows. They got soaked. While their mom was making dinner,
they saw lightening. Then the power went out. Their dad lit some
candles and made a fire in the fireplace. For dinner they roasted
marshmellows and hot dogs. They thought it was just like a real
campout.
When the power came back on the little girl
and her brother tried to watch their favorite TV show, but the
weatherman kept interrupting it. Soon mom and dad said it was time to
go to bed. They didn't want to go because of all the thunder.
Do you think the little girl and her
brother went to bed? What do you think happened next?
