from Danny and the Dinosaur
Danny loves dinosaurs. In fact, he wishes he had one. Then one day, his wish came true!
One day, Danny went to the museum. He wanted to see what was inside.
He saw Indians.
He saw bears.
He saw Eskimos.
He saw guns.
He saw swords.
And he saw...
DINOSAURS!
Danny loved dinosaurs. He wished he had one.
"I'm sorry they are not real," said Danny. "it would be nice to play with a dinosaur."
"And I think that it would be nice to play with you," said a voice.
"Can you?" said Danny.
"Yes," said the dinosaur
"Oh, good." said Danny.
"What can we do?"
"I can take you for a ride," said the dinosaur.
He put his head down so Danny could get on him.
"let's go!" said Danny.
A policeman stared at them. He had never seen a dinosaur stop for a red light. The dinosaur was so tall Danny had to hold up the ropes for him.
"look out!" said Danny.
"Bow wow!" said a dog.
"He thinks you are a car," said Danny. "Go away dog, we are not a car."
"I can make a noise like a car," said the dinosaur. "Honk! Honk! Honk! What big rocks," said the dinosaur.
"They are not rocks," said Danny. "They are builidings."
"I love to climb," said the dinosaur.
"Down, boy!" said Danny.
The Dinosaur had to be very careful not to knock over houses or stores with his long tail. Some people were waiting for a bus. The rode on the dinosaur's tail instead.
"All who want to cross the street may walk on my back," said the dinosaur.
"It's very nice of you to help me with my bundles," said a lady.
Danny and the dinosaur went all over town and had lots of fun.
"It's good to take an hour or two off a hundred million years." said the dinosaur.
