A Card for Gran

1Tomás went to the post office with his mom. He had a card for his gran. The card was red, and it had a big gold star on it.

2"Do you have a stamp?" said the clerk. "Yes, I have one," said Tomás. The clerk put the stamp on the card. Then she put the card in a bag.

3"Where do the cards go?" asked Tomás. "Some trucks come here at noon," said the clerk. "They take cards and letters to many towns." Tomás was happy. He could not wait for Gran to see it.

Read paragraph 2. Who said, "Do you have a stamp?"
