Trent's Big Spill

Trent had a red truck and a big spud. He set the spud in the truck.

"I will make it speed in this open space," said Trent.

He let the truck go. It sped down the track. But the truck hit a thick stick. It spun in a fast spin. Crash! It was a big spill.

The truck fell in a bad spot. The spud fell out and split in two.

Trent ran to the spot.

"My spud is split," he said. "But my truck is still good!"
