STAARIO QUIZ 3

Gael and the Funnel Cake

Gael was so excited about the amusement park. He couldn't wait for the rides, the games, and, most of all, the food. As soon as they arrived, Gael headed straight for the funnel cake stand. It didn't take long before Gael's funnel cake arrived. He dug in, not caring that he was making a mess. The powdered sugar and the grease from the cake covered his hands and face. Rowan started laughing as he watched Gael. He tried to eat his cake like a normal person but finally gave up. He grabbed it by the edges and took big bites out of it like an animal. More sugar and grease went flying everywhere. "I've never seen anyone eat funnel cake like this before," Rowan said between giggles. "You're hilarious!"

• A He loves food.

• B He is adventurous.

• C He likes to have fun.

• D He is not worried about being
