GRANDMOTHER’S BIRTHDAY

Mary is a pupil of the fifth grade. She lives with her mother in a house in Sedov Street in Kiev. She has a grandmother and she loves her very much. But her grandmother doesn’t live with them. She lives in a house in Sokolov Street. Her house is rather beautiful and comfortable. It is near the park where there are many pretty flowers in spring and summer. One day Mother says to Mary, “Today is your grandmother’s birthday. Put this cake and some nice apples into the basket and take them to your grandmother’s house. And do not stop on your way there”. Mary puts the cake and apples into the basket; then she takes it and goes out into the street. In the street she sees her friend Ann. Ann is a pupil too, but she is in the sixth grade. The girls walk on together. Then they see a bench and sit down. They put the basket under the bench. They talk about their new toys, about their school, their lessons and many other things. At that time a little dog sees the basket. It seems the nice cake. The little dog looks at the basket and then jumps into it. After some time Mary says, “Good-bye, Ann”. Then she takes the basket and goes to her grandmother’s house. “Good morning,” she says. “Happy birthday to you, Granny dear! This cake and these apples are for you”. With these words she puts the basket on a chair, opens it and… sees a dog, but no cake and apples.
