One day Scott’s father came home from work. He said, “I lost my job.”


Mother said, “Well, it will be hard. But we just won’t buy lots of things. We’ll get by. You’ll get a new job soon.”

“Sure,” Scott said. “I’ll help with the garden. We can grow some of our food.” He gave his father a hug.


Each day, Scott’s father looked for work. He didn’t have much luck.
