Pat and Tim

by Liane B. Onish illustrated by Richard Torrey

Meet the twins Pat and Tim. They like to do lots of the same things. And they both like caps. Pat and Tim put on red caps to go to the park. They ride bikes and climb and swing and play catch. 2

The twins like t-ball. They even play on the same team. Pat and Tim put on blue team caps to play ball.

3

Pat and Tim like yellow caps for reading. They put on green caps to study math. 4

On Monday, Pat puts on a pink cap. Tim puts on a black cap. But the twins feel sad. Can you think why?

5

Pat is in class 2-P with Miss Pinkham. Tim is next door in class 2-B with Miss Blackwell. 6

Len and Gus

by Holly Melton illustrated by Bernard Adnet

The sun was hot. The sky was blue. The grass was green and fluffy. Gus the mouse was on a fun run. But the fun did not last! 8

“I got you!” said Len the lion. “A log is a fun spot to hide.” “Let me go! I beg you!” said Gus. “It may be a lot to ask. But if you set me free, I’ll help you some day.”

9

“That is funny!” said Len. “You are not even as big as a dog. How could you help me? But I’ll let you go. Run, mouse, run!” Gus ran.

10

One day, a net fell on Len. He could not get free. “Men set this trap,” he said. “I am stuck like a bug in a web!” Len gave a big ROAR. 11

Gus was on a run. “That sounds like Len!” he said. “I bet I can help him. This is a job for a mouse!” He ran to Len.

12

“Let me see,” said Gus. “I must study the net. I must find the best spot to cut it.” “Study fast!” said Len. “Or the men will get me!” 13

Gus tugged at the net. He cut the net with his teeth. He set Len free. “That was quick!” Gus said. Len shook his paw. “A little friend can be a big help!” said Len.

You Can Bake a Cake!

by Barbara A. Donovan photographed by Ken O’Donoghue

This year you and Dad can bake a cake for Mom’s birthday. Just get a box of cake mix. Look on the back. It shows you what to do. 16

Rub butter on the cake pans. Then shake flour into them. Now the cake will not stick. Next, turn on the oven. 17

Look at the back of the box. Get what you need to make the cake. Put the cake mix in a bowl. Then add the water. This cake has oil in it. Put that in the bowl, too.

18

Crack an egg and add it to the bowl. Then add another. Stir it up so there are no lumps. Put some cake mix in each pan. Dad can put the pans in the hot oven.

19

Bake your cakes until they are done. Let them cool on a rack. Move them to a plate. Add frosting and dab on some red dots. Mom will be glad to see this cake! 20

k i M e’s Big Bike

by Elena Matos illustrated by Joe Cepeda

Mike rides his white bike. Each time his legs go up, he bumps the handlebars. Mike likes his bike, but he understands it’s not the right size. What will Mike do? 22

Mike tells Mom he needs a different bike. Mom will help Mike pay for the bike, but he has to save and help pay for it, too. Mike thinks that this is fine.

23

Mike gets to work. He wipes the dishes. He rakes twigs. He sells lime ice pops to other kids. He does a number of different jobs. Each dime goes in his bank.

24

Mike can now pay for his bike. At a yard sale, Mike rides each bike. Then he sees one that is the right size and the right price. Mike likes his new red bike.

25

Mike rides his new bike on the wide sidewalk. Tim asks to ride it. Mike says, “You ride the red bike. I’ll ride the white one. I will ride my red bike another time.”

At Home in Nome by Lois Owens illustrated by Kathy Ember

May 9 I am in Nome. My family just moved. I have so much to tell. Next week I will go to my new school. I’m scared because I won’t know the kids. I hope they like me! 28

May 1 1 It’s spring, but it’s cold! Some places still have snow. It’s not hot like it is back home. I saw fox tracks in the mud. Dad took a picture of them.

29

May 15 Mom drove me to school. Back home I rode my bike. All the kids spoke to me! I made lots of friends. Next week I will ride the bus. That will be fun! 30

May 23 There are cod fish and crab here in Nome. Mom makes them a lot. She gets cod and crab off the boats. We ate them back home, too. I’m glad I like fish and crab!

31

June 10 I will like going back home to visit some day. But for now, I am happy to be at home in Nome! 32
