Summer Holiday
It was summer holidays. I was
at my aunt's farm in British
Columbia. I was 13 years old.
I went fishing
It was just after lunch. I went fishing down the road.
I rode my bike that day. I caught 10 fish.

12. I saw a bear in the road
After fishing, I rode back to the
farm. I had a bag full of fish.
When I got to the
driveway, there
was a bear. It was
sitting in the
middle of the road.

13. I rode past the bear
I thought, "How do I get around the bear?””
“I'll just have to pedal past
him as fast as I can.”
So I went around the bear.

14. I stopped and looked
behind me. The bear was
still sitting on the road.
He was looking at me.
I went home.
