Disaster at the station!
Jana was late for college. She ran
into the station and tripped over.
Disaster! Her art folder slipped out
of her hands and fell onto the
railway track! A young man saw
this and, straight away, he checked
things out. He saw there was no
train approaching, so he jumped
onto the track and got Jana’s folder.
He gave it back to her. As he
looked into her eyes, something
special happened. They fell in love.

Last Sunday, the Smith family had a get-
together. They invited grandparents, aunties,
uncles and cousins. Mum, Dad, Jimmy and
Sarah got up early to get everything ready. In
the morning, Jimmy and Sarah washed and
polished the glasses. Mum put some flowers
into a vase. In the afternoon, Mum baked cakes
and Dad put the barbecue on. Jimmy and Sarah
got some party games ready. Everybody felt
very excited. At 5pm, the first guest arrived. It
was great granny. She waved and everybody
smiled and clapped. The special occasion?
Great granny was one hundred years old!
