 It’s Hot!
by N.N. Hermosa

It was summer. The animals

felt hot. Hudson, the cub, rolled
in the mud. He rolled in the wet
mud.“Ah, that‟s so good,” says
Hudson.
 Justin, the pup, went to a tub.
But the tub had no water.“Too
bad,” says Justin.
So he went to roll in the mud
with Hudson. Hudson and Justin
had fun. They had fun in the wet
mud.
