What does Bolt want to be?

11 Bolt doesn’t know what he wants to be. He sees his teacher, Mr Brown. ‘I don’t know what I want to be,’ he says. ‘Which do you like more?’ asks Mr Brown, ‘The town or the countryside?’ ‘I like both, Mr Brown,’ says Bolt. ‘But I like the countryside more.’ ‘Do you like being inside, like a doctor, or outside, like a farmer?’ asks Mr Brown. ‘I like being inside,’ says Bolt. ‘Do you like helping, like a nurse, or playing, like a clown?’ asks Mr Brown. ‘That’s easy,’ says Bolt, ‘I really like helping.’ ‘And do you like animals?’ Mr Brown asks. ‘Yes, I love animals,’ says Bolt. ‘My favourite animals are dogs. I love cats, elephants and cows. Oh, and I love horses!’ ‘OK. You like helping. You like being inside and you love animals. How about being a vet?’ says Mr Brown. ‘What’s a vet?’ asks Bolt. ‘A vet is a doctor for animals,’ says Mr Brown. ‘An animal doctor! How cool! Yes, I’d like to be a vet. Thanks, Mr Brown!’ says Bolt.Sample - Not for sale
