Did you know that the color of your clothes can make a difference in how cool you stay? It is true, at least when you are outdoors on a sunny day.
1 You see, color soaks in sunlight, which then becomes heat. If you wear a black shirt, that shirt will soak in much light. The warm shirt will make your body become warmer.
2 On the other hand, a white shirt will keep your body cooler. This is because a white shirt has no color to soak in the heat. Instead, the shirt turns away sunlight. The light bounces off of the shirt. This means that less heat reaches your body.
3 So the rule is, the darker a shirt is, the warmer you are likely to feel. The lighter a shirt is, the cooler you are likely to feel. Now you know why people often wear lightcolored clothing in the summer and darker clothing in the winter!
What is a result of wearing a white shirt on a sunny day?
Your body becomes warmer.
More light reaches your body
Your body becomes sweaty.
Less heat reaches your body.

Story 1: The Drum — A Tale from India
1 Long ago in India, a boy named Sonu and his mother were
walking home from the market. Along the way, Mother stopped
and picked up a stick. “Here is a fine stick, Sonu,” she said. “I’m
sorry it is not a drum. I know that you have been wishing for
one.”
2 “Thank you, Mother,” said Sonu, taking the long piece of wood.
He knew that she would buy him a drum if she had the money.
3 Soon they met a woman who was trying to start a fire. Her fire
would not light. “Here,” said Sonu, handing her his stick. The
woman used the stick to start the fire. Then she gave Sonu a chapati, a round, flat bread.
4 Next Sonu and his mother met a man and a little girl. The girl was hungry, so Sonu gave her
his bread. “Here, take this drum,” said the man. “Someone gave it to my daughter, but she
doesn’t need it.”
Story 2: The Blue Feather — A Tale from Brazil
1 Mia lived by the great Amazon River. One day her mother gave her a pretty blue feather.
2 Mia wanted to show the feather to her friend Nali. She put the feather
in her basket and told her mother where she was going. Nali lived
nearby in a hut by the river.
3 Walking on the path along the river, Mia saw a red flower. As she bent
to pick up the flower, the wind blew the blue feather up into the air!
Mia could not catch the feather. She sighed and put the red flower in
her basket.
4 Then a yellow butterfly flew in front of Mia. Running to catch the
butterfly, Mia dropped her basket. The red flower fell out, and the
wind carried it out onto the river.
5 Mia sighed and picked up her basket. Looking up, Mia saw the yellow butterfly land on a
branch where there was a bluebird. The bluebird flew away, dropping one of its beautiful
blue feathers near Mia’s feet!
6 Happily, Mia picked up the feather and hurried to her friend’s house.
