Scout's Lost Hound
Scout did not know where her hound went. She did not want her hound to be out. Scout went all around her house. She did not find her hound. “Where is my hound?” said Scout.
She went out the back door. The sun was hot. A big cloud went over her. Scout made a sound. She went to the south. Then she found a small sound. It came from a dust mound. She went to the mound.
Her hound sat on the mound. It was so proud! Her hound sat by a small green sprout. “You found a sprout, pup!” said Scout. She took her hound back to the house.
