Share 2.2 Beth's Trip in the Grass
Save to Folder
Mom asked Beth to sit on the top step.
Beth was in her best red dress and Mom did not want Beth to get up.
When Mom left to get her bag, Beth got up fast.
She slid off the steps.
What did Beth do next?
She ran in the grass, but her shoe hit a twig, which led to a big slip.
Beth fell and got a cut on one of her leg.
Beth went back to the top step, stuck her chin in her hands, and wept.
She could see that there was a big rip in her dress.
She should not have gone for a run in the grass.
Mom was mad when she saw the rip in Beth’s dress.
She asked, “My, my, Beth, how could this be?
Why did you get up?
Beth had to tell Mom that her slip in the grass led to this mess.
Mom had to fix the cut on Beth’s leg, then try to stick a pin in the red dress.
All was well in the end.
