Let’s dig in and see what’s growing on Grandma Carrot’s farm today!
It was a sunny morning on Grandma Carrot’s farm.
Emerald
and Mason
loved visiting their grandma.
“Today, we’ll pick vegetables from the garden,”
Grandma Carrot said, tying on her sun hat.
Emerald grabbed the basket, and Mason held the watering can.
Together, they followed Grandma to the garden.
“Look!” Mason pointed to the dirt. “What are those little footprints?”
“Hmm, they weren’t here yesterday,” Grandma Carrot said.
“Let’s see if we can figure out who made them!”
The footprints led to the chicken coop. Inside, the chickens clucked and flapped their wings.
“Looks like someone came for breakfast!”
Grandma Carrot laughed.
