Pip's Bright Light

Vowel Team — IGH 1st-2nd Phase 4
Pip's Bright Light

It was night. Pip the pig sat in a big box. The box was his ship. Pip wanted to read his book, but it was too dim. He could not see. "I might not get to read tonight," he said with a sigh. It was a sad sight to see Pip in the dim. Then, Pip had a thought. He went to the shelf and got a bright light. He took the light back to his ship. "This light is just right!" he said. Pip sat in his box and read his book by the light. He was glad he could read late into the night.
