    Dolch Basic Sight Word Story

    Sidney Gelb

    It was a nice day.

    The sun was shining and the sky was blue.

    There in the back yard was a little sheep.

    He stood in the corner all alone. Around hisneck was a little brass bell and a leathercollar with a brass name plate.

    A little boy and little girl ran into theyard and looked at the sheep.

    The boy turned to the girl and said, I sawhim first. The girl answered, I, saw him first.

    He is mine, said the Boy.

    No, he is mine, said the Girl.

    The children’s mother walked into the yardand tried to quiet them by saying, Children,please stop fighting. Stop fussing.

    The Boy looked up at her and said, I saw him first.

    No, I saw him first, shouted the Girl.

    Children, stop, please stop arguing, said Mom.

    The Girl stomped her foot on the groundsaying, He is mine, I want him.

    l, too, want him, said the Boy.

    Please, can we keep him? asked the Boy.

    I never had a pet.

    May we keep him? asked the Girl. She walkedtoward the sheep and said,He is pretty and is so nice.

    I can ride him, said the Boy.

    Mom began to laugh and said, You can not ridea sheep. He is too small to ride, he is almosta little lamb.

    The Girl said, "I can take him for a walk andtie a yellow and red ribbon around his neck.

    I can make him pretty. I can make him run and jump."

    The Boy said, It is not funny mom. I want to play withhim. He can pull my wagon. Please, mom, I want to havehim for my own.

    The Girl said, I can be good to him. I can cut grassfor him to eat.

    What, can we call him? asked the Boy.

    Please Mom, can we keep him? asked the Girl.

    Let us have him to keep.

    I want him too, said the Boy. We can show him toour friends.

    He has to have a name, said the Girl.

    We can call him ‘Spotty’, said the Boy.

    "He has many small black and brown spots onhis white fur.
