1 Living peacefully, Sara and her family enjoyed their house with its wonderful garden that was full of different kinds of flowers and plants.
They had the advantage of breathing fresh air that was coming from the seaside. Their life was great and everything had been perfect.

2 Three years later and because financial problems, Sara’s family decided to move to a new house. Finally, Sara’s father could find a proper one.
It was an old house that was built more than forty years ago. In spite of being so old, He thought it would be his best choice; for he had very few
ones.

3 Boom! A clap of thunder made the old house shake. Sara huddled under the three covers of her bed. The lightning lit up the room. I hate this
house, Sara thought. It was her first night in her new home. The house had belonged to her grandma. It was very, very old. Paint peeled off of the
walls. The wood boards of the floor creaked when you walked on them.

4 The house looked really creepy at night, Sara thought. The trees outside her windows looked like monsters in the dark. Their branches
looked like long arms. They waved when the wind blew. The storm made everything extra creepy. Sara hated storms anyway. She was very
frightened. It seemed worse in the old house.

5 Sara pulled the covers off of her head. The thunder became quieter and Sara slept. When she woke up in the morning, the storm had ended
and the sun was streaming through her window. Sara yawned and climbed out of bed. The trees outside didn’t look like monsters anymore. The
branches had nice green leaves growing on them. She could see a bird sitting on one of the branches. It sang a sweet song.

6 Sara walked to the window and looked outside. It looked pretty nice in the daylight. A garden of flowers grew next to the tree. Butterflies
flew around the flowers. “Maybe living here won’t be so bad after all,” Sara said.
