The Sweater That Shrank
1Rami has a green sweater with a big star on it. He wears it every Friday. One day, the sweater goes into the wash with hot water.
2The next morning, Rami pulls the sweater over his head. Oh no, it is stuck! He can only see green. Why is the sweater so tight?
3Rami's little sister Bea helps him tug it off. They hold it up together. The sweater is tiny now! It is the size of a doll shirt.
4Bea has an idea. Can her teddy bear wear it? Rami puts the sweater on the bear. It fits just right!
