A Very Special Lunch
It was a fine summer day. Fran the fox was walking in the forest when she saw her friend
Roy the raccoon. Roy was carrying a basket and a blanket.
No, Roy laughed. A picnic is different from a game. It is a special kind of lunch. You
get to eat outside! Would you like to come?
Roy and Fran walked together in the forest. Soon they met Ben the bird.
Ben asked Roy and Fran, What are you doing today?
No, Roy answered. A picnic isnt a contest. Its a lunch that you eat outside. Come
with us! Youll see.
Fran and Ben looked everywhere. They didnt see any table or food.
Roy put the blanket on the ground in the shade beneath the tree. Then he opened the
basket. He brought out bread, apples, cookies, and milk to drink. Roy set everything on
the blanket.
This is a picnic. Now its time to eat lunch! said Roy. Thank you for coming! They ate
their special lunch. They were happy to be together.
