Shorter tellingA Present for Mum
A Silverton story, narrated by Walbot. Read, echo, act or listen.
Mum's birthday was on Thursday. Ava found a white mug with a yellow lightning shape.
It is a fast mug.
It cost five coins. Ava had six and wanted to keep one aside. She chose the mug. Louis helped make a card showing it racing along a road.
On Thursday, Mum opened the present.
It is a fast mug.
“Will my tea run away?” Mum asked.
“Only if you don't drink it quickly!” Ava said.
Mum hugged them both. Later, she had her tea while they shared a book. The fast mug stayed happily still.
