It was a hot sunnyday. After lunch, Mom and Pablo wanted a treat. A cool, sweet yogurt cone would be just right. The Yogurt Parlor was only a couple of blocks from home. So Mom and Pablo decided to walk there.

Joe, the store owner, smiled at them. He said, "What flavor would you like?" Pablo looked a the long list of flavors. There were more than a dozen. Mom chose Suzanna Banana. Pablo had a hard time deciding. Very Strawberry sounded good. So did Great Grape. Finally Pablo chose Vanilla Gorilla because of its funny name . He liked the idea of eating frozen yogurt that was named after a big ape.

Joe did not use an ice-cream scoop. Instead, he turned on a machine. He held one cone under a spout. Thick, soft frozen yogurt poured out into the cone. It made a tall swirly shape.

"Your cones are enormous!" said Mom. It was true. Pablo's serving of frozen yogurt stood six inches tall. He could hardly keep it balanced on the cone!

"Thanks for the Vanilla Gorilla!" said Pablo. He and Mom sat across from each other in a booth. They licked the cool, sweet frozen yogurt. Pablo thought about a gorilla he had seen in a cartoon. It had a funny way of scratching its armpits.

"Hey, Mom, want to see what a gorilla does?" said Pablo. Mom was enjoying her cone. "Hmmm?" she said. Pablo made a "HOO! HOO! HOO!" noise like a gorilla. He reache ddown to scratch his armpits.

Whoops! Pablo's frozen yogurt fell SPLATon the table. It slid across the tabletop. Then it plopped onto the cushion right next to Mom.

Joe was not pleased about the accident. He gave Pablo a wet cloth to clean up the mess. Mom would not buy Pablo another cone. But she did let him share hers. Next time, Pablo decided, he would order Very Strawberry or Great Grape.
