John also likes making videos about animals and insects. John’s mom helped him to pack his bags. His dad took him to the bus station. John was excited to meet his friends. They were going to have much fun at the camp. The first night, John heard a strange sound right outside his cabin. He thought it was just a dream. But in the morning he saw a nest with three baby birds under the tree. It probably fell down at night. Luckily, all the three baby birds were fine. John and his friends put the nest back on the tree. John ran back to the cabin to grab his camera to film them. A few minutes later, the mother bird came back with a big worm for her chicks. John filmed the hungry baby birds and their happy mother. It’s a good thing he brought his camera!

Exercise 51 (example)It was a beautiful winter day. John was playing outside with his little brother. They decided to make the biggest snowman ever. They used tree branches for the snowman’s arms, rocks for eyes and mouth, and a carrot for its nose. There was only one thing missing, the scarf. John took off his scarf and wrapped it around the snowman’s neck. They named it Frosty. Awesome job! The two brothers went back home. Their mother prepared some hot chocolate for the boys. It was delicious. In the evening, John wasn’t feeling very well. He had fever. “It’s probably because you weren’t wearing your scarf,” said his little brother. John’s mom gave him some syrup. He went to bed early that night. In the morning John felt much better. He wanted to go play outside, but he didn’t have a scarf. In the closet, he found an old scarf. He could go play with Frosty now!

How the Fly Saved the River(Native American Legend)

Many, many years ago when the world was new, there was a beautiful river. Fish in great numbers lived in this river, and its water was so pure and sweet that all the animals came there to drink.

A giant moose heard about the river and he too came there to drink. But he was so big, and he drank so much, that soon the water began to sink lower and lower.

The beavers were worried. The water around their lodges was disappearing. Soon their homes would be destroyed.

The muskrats were worried, too. What would they do if the water vanished? How could they live?

The fish were very worried. The other animals could live on land if the water dried up, but they couldn't.

All the animals tried to think of a way to drive the moose from the river, but he was so big that they were too afraid to try. Even the bear was afraid of him.

At last the fly said he would try to drive the moose away. All the animals laughed and jeered. How could a tiny fly frighten a giant moose? The fly said nothing, but that day, as soon as the moose appeared, he went into action.

He landed on the moose's leg and bit sharply. The moose stamped his foot. Then the fly jumped about all over the moose, biting and biting and biting until the moose was in a frenzy. He dashed madly about the banks of the river, shaking his head, stamping his feet, snorting and blowing, but he couldn't get rid of that pesky fly. At last the moose fled from the river, and didn't come back.

The fly was very proud of his achievement.Even the small can fight the strong if they are smart.
