Christmas at the Beach
by Marsha Grace
Inspired by the Third Grade Class of Melba Gaitan
Last Christmas, my nephew Kenny came to visit me. On December 25th,
Kenny and I decided to go to the beach for a swim. Kenny was having a fabulous
time in the water while I was sunbathing on the beach.
I looked at the horizon and saw something terrible. I saw the fin of
a shark. I yelled at Kenny to get out of the water, but he didn't hear me!
I swam out to where Kenny was and brought him safely back to shore.
I looked again toward the shark, and it wasn't a shark at all. It was
just the sail of a little toy boat.
But we still had great fun at the beach.
