READ THE TEXT: Kate is a monster!

When we finally arrived at the beach I immediately got changed and walked on the nice soft sand.
Everybody was looking at me and pointing. OK, so my body was
very white and my face was very red, but I did not think I was so
shocking. “My God, you look like so red!” Dave said. Ignoring
Dave and the curious people, I started to walk towards the sea
and, after just a few steps, I saw that a group of children were
following me pointing their fingers and talking excitedly. This
made me very nervous.“Why are you so red?” a little boy asked.
“Go away!” was my reply. “Are you a monster?” he continued. I
started to lose my patience: “Why are you here?” I asked. “I’m
on holiday” the little boy said. “Holiday?” I shouted “you have
never worked a single day in your life! Why do you think you
deserve a holiday? A holiday from what?” The little boy didn’t answer, but he did cry. All the
children seemed scared. They talked quietly, but I could hear them. I should take my sunscreen,
but I did not. My mom took the essential things as sandals, razor, toothpaste, toothbrush,
makeup, batteries, flashlight, pajamas for everyone and our hair dryer, but we forgot the
sunscreen! Now all the kids were thinking that I was a very bad red monster.I finally went into the
sea up to my stomach, then my shoulders... and I saw that a group of people were watching me
from the beach... all waiting to see if my face made a ‘psssss!’ sound when the water reached it.
