Becky and Billy
Jumping


by Carol Goodrow

Becky: Hi, Billy. I'm jumping rope.

Billy: Hi, Becky. I see you jumping rope.

Becky: Billy, do you want to jump rope with me? Do you have a jump rope?

Billy: No, Becky. I'm going to run and jump. I'm going to run and jump over things. Would you like to play with me?

Becky: Not now Billy. I want to jump rope. You can play with Gingerbread Girl.

Billy: Let's run, Gingerbread Girl. Let's run and jump over a rock. Good job, Gingerbread Girl! You can jump. Let's run and jump over a log. Good job, Gingerbread Girl, you can jump high.

Becky: Billy! Look out. Here comes Maria's dog, Biscuit. Biscuit is always hungry. He will eat Gingerbread Girl.

Billy: Let's run Gingerbread Girl! Let's jump over the big fence. Biscuit can't jump as high as you! You can do it, Gingerbread Girl.

Becky: Thanks Billy! Thanks for saving Gingerbread Girl!
