On holiday at the farm
Hello! My name’s Ben. I live in the town centre with my parents and my
brother, Peter. Peter’s younger than me. He’s five and I’m twelve. Last
Saturday, Dad took us all to our grandparents’ farm in his car. Grandma
and Grandpa live on a farm that’s near the sea. We love going there.

There’s always something exciting to go and
see at their farm. On Sunday, my brother
asked, ‘Can we go and see the horses,
Grandpa?’ ‘Yes!’ Grandpa said. ‘And I can
show you our two new baby horses! They’re
only one week old. I’d like you to choose
names for them!’ ‘Good idea!’ Grandma said.

Peter and I laughed when we saw the baby
horses! They had pretty brown eyes and made
funny noises when we said ‘Your new names
are Cloudy and Star!’ On Monday, we both

the biggest field. Peter and I really loved that
holiday.
