Riding the Bus to School
I ride a big blue bus to school. I stand on the corner of our street with my friends and we wait for the bus.
My friend’s granny waits with us. When it’s raining, she holds an umbrella to keep us dry. Sometimes when it’s cold she brings us hot chocolate.
I leave my house to walk to the bus stop after my parents go to work. I watch the clock so I know when to leave.
Sometimes mummy phones me from her office to remind me. Sometimes she can’t call, so I have to be sure to watch the time.
Our bus driver puts his flashing yellow lights on and then stops right next to us. When he has stopped he turns the red lights on so all the cars will stop. He makes sure we are all sitting down before he starts to go. He watches out for us very carefully.
My friends and I are the first ones to be picked up by the bus. We like to sit behind the driver and watch while he picks up all the other children.
We know where everyone lives. By the time we get to our school, the bus is almost full.
Sometimes the kids get noisy and the driver tells us to keep it down. He says their noise makes it hard for him to drive safely. I am glad that our bus driver is so careful.

One day a lion was taking a walk. He walked into a net.
“Help!” he yelled. “I cannot get out.”
A fat little mouse came running along. She cried, “I will help you!”
“Oh!” said the lion. “How can you help? You are too little.”
“I can help! You will see,” she cried.
She began biting the net into small bits. When
the lion got out, he smiled. He said, “You may be a little mouse, but you are a very big
help.”

Mouse and Lion
Mouse and Lion live in the African grasslands. Lion is very
large, and Mouse is very small. When Lion roars, the ground
shakes. When Mouse squeaks, not even the grass shakes.
One day, Mouse smelled smoke. Mouse ran to find Lion.
“Squeak, squeak!” Mouse squeaked. “I smell smoke, Lion! I
think there is a fire!”
Lion looked around. He smelled the smoke, too. He lowered
his huge head, and told Mouse to climb onto his back. Lion
raced to the top of the highest hill, with Mouse holding on for
dear life.
Lion saw the fire on the edge of the grasslands. He raised
his head and roared his mighty roar. All the animals knew that
special roar. It meant danger! They gathered their young ones,
and ran to safety near the river.
