He swam and surfed all day long, And that was when it all went wrong. 13. Roberts skin was as white as snow, And in the sun, it began to glow. Mom shouted, Wear a hat on your head! But it was too late now Robert was red! 14. He got out of the water and put on his shirt, But his skin was raw, and it really hurt! Mom said, I hope that will teach you, son. Suddenly, surfing wasnt much fun. 15. Robert looked in the mirror and got a shock, Why did he forget to put on sunblock? His face was steaming hot and as red as a cherry, Do you feel silly? asked Mom Rob cried, Very! 16. This is the lesson that Robert learned, He played in the sun, and his skin got burned. When you go to the beach, remember this tale, And use your sunblock without fail! 17. Bibliography James, Rob and Jacqueline Velzquez (2014) Step Inside 3 Students Book, Oxford University Press.
