Walking Tall

1Femi got wooden stilts for his birthday. He wanted to walk tall, but his legs wobbled.

2Femi could hold the fence, or he could hold his sister's hand. He held Ada's hand because the fence was far away. Femi took one step and then another. He tipped over, so Ada helped him up.

3By lunch, Femi walked all the way across the yard! He was tired, but he was proud.
