The Boy and the Wolf Braxton Carr
The Boy and the Wolf
A nine-year-old boy just moved. He was playing outside when he heard something in the woods, so he went to see what it was. He saw something that spooked him, and he ran home.

The next day, he was outside and heard something again. He thought it was the wind and kept on playing. Soon, it started raining so he went inside. He looked out the window and saw a wolf! So he went to get his dad, who was a hunter.
His dad said, “What’s wrong, son?”
“I saw a wolf!” the boy said.
His dad went to get his gun. He shot at the wolf but missed. He tried ten more times and missed.
The wolf came closer. The boy realized that the wolf was really their long lost dog! The boy ran outside and hugged the dog. The dog licked his face!
