Pip's Bright Light

Pip's Bright Light

Pip felt a sigh. He sat in his snug box. Pip had a book but it was a dim night. He could not see the tale. "I want some light!" said Pip.

He thought of Dad. Dad had a light. It was a bright light! Pip ran to get it. He came back to his box. He held the bright light. Pip made his box glow. The light made his box less dim. Now Pip could see the tale. It felt just right! Pip read his book all the night.
