Kim's Truck Trip

Kim wanted to take her truck on the train. She had a treat for her trip. But the truck’s trunk was stuck. Kim could not get the treat in.

“Oh no!” Kim said. The treat was big. Kim had a trick. It was a trick! She trimmed the treat. Snip, snip, snip! The treat got small.

Kim put the small treat in the truck’s trunk. It fit! Now her truck was set for the train. Kim got her truck on the track. “All set for the trip!” Kim said. She felt glad.
