　　The island picnic
Every Saturday Sally goes to see her father.
One Saturday Sally said, "Can we go out in a boat today?"
"Yes, let's do that," said Dad, "Come on, Red Boy. You can come too."
Dad, Sally, and Red Boy went up the river in a boat.
They came to an island. "This is a good place for a picnic," said Sally. They got out, and Dad tied the boat to a tree.
"I'm hungry," said Sally. They opened the basket and got out some sandwiches and some apples.
"Did you bring something for Red Boy?" said Sally. "He can have a sandwich," said Dad.
Then Dad looked around. "Where's the boat?" he shouted, "Look-there it is!" said Sally. "It's going down the river."
"Oh no! Said Dad. "I didn't tie a good knot¹[n?t] !" Then they saw an orange boat coming down the river.
Sally and Dad waved and shouted, and Red Boy barked² and barked. The orange boat came to the island to get them.
They all climbed in, and went down the river to get their runaway³ boat. "Thanks," said Dad.
On the way home they saw a blue and white towel in a store window. "Let's buy it," said Dad. "Look at that knot, Sally, It will show me the right way to tie up a boat."
"Next time we get a boat we will tie it up with a good knot," said Sally.
