Adam went to Aunt Mandy's home one rainy day. She lived alone in a cabin in the woods. It was fun to visit her. Aunt Mandy played games with him. She let him climb trees! When Adam arrived, Aunt Mandy came out the front door. "Guess what!" she cried. "I don't live alone anymore!" Adam wondered who had moved into the cabin. Nobody came out to greet him. Aunt Mandy had not had a baby. As Adam entered the cabin, he decided to find out who else lived there. In the kitchen, Adam saw an empty bowl on the floor. That was a funny place to leave a bowl. He wanted to put it in the sink. Aunt Mandy asked him to leave it alone. In the living room, Adam spied a toy mouse near the TV. That did not seem like a fun toy to him. He left it alone. In the bathroom, there was a big plastic box. It had sand in it. That was a strange place for a sandbox. It smelled funny too. Adam did not want to play in the sand. Adam went into the spare bedroom. He heard a small sound under the bed. What was it? He got down on the floor to look. He saw two bright eyes. "Oh, you are so cute!" he cried. "Come out so I can meet you!"
