Name ________________________________Voc. Frog and Toad
Today I took a walk. It�s best not to walk alone. So I went with my dad.
We walked through the tall grass of the meadow. We saw many kinds of butterflies and flowers. It was a fineday for a walk because it was warm and sunny.
A little later, it started to rain. I thought our walk would be spoiled, and we would have to go inside. I felt sad.
Suddenly it stopped raining. Dad smiled, but I didn�t know the reason. Then I saw the rainbow. I smiled, too. Dad knew the rainbow would cheer me up.
Exert from story: �If frog wants to be alone,� said Turtle, �why don�t you leave him alone?� �Maybe you are right,� said Toad. �Maybe Frog does not want to see me. Maybe Frog does not want me to be his friend anymore.� �Yes, maybe,� said Turtle as he swam away.
