The frog sat on the side of the pond. His green color made him hard to see. A bug flew near him. His tongue zipped out, and he gobbled it up. Then the frog was still again. He waited for the next bug.

My favorite dress is yellow. It has a white ribbon that ties in the middle. It has lace by the neck. It also has lace at the bottom. I wore it for my aunt's wedding. I was the flower girl. Mom said I looked as pretty as the bride!
Tim Cordes went blind as a teen. He did not let his blindness stop him. He learned how to water ski and how to canoe. He learned how to write music. He became a black belt in karate. He carried the Olympic torch in 2002. After school he became a doctor.
What is litter? Litter is junk. Litter is trash. Litter is stuff that people throw on the ground. They throw it in lakes. They throw it in the woods. Litter stinks. It makes the world ugly. It makes water unhealthy. Littering shows a lack of concern.
Let me tell you about my great dog. My dog's name is Mulligan. She is brown and black. She weighs 25 pounds. She has long ears and a tail with long hair. She follows me around the house. I love her very much!
