Cu cortul in gradina

8 Jun 2020 by Ada

In Canada suntem inca sub lockdown asa ca ne asteapta o vara ciudata. E un bun prilej sa ne apucam de reinventat jocuri uitate si de scris povesti atunci cand copiii sunt “plecati” cu cortul in gradina. 

Un scurt fragment din seria Cartea cu Bucurii, pentru vorbitorii de engleza mici si mari. M-as bucura daca le-ati citi copiilor aceasta poveste sau daca i-ati incuraja pe cei ce studiaza engleza de macar doi ani, sa incerce sa citeasca singuri. Vocabularul nu este foarte complicat, e gandit pentru copii de 8-10 ani. 

“Have you ever camped in the backyard? Backyards are usually really friendly. Some evenings, Joy and her mommy would sit on the red swing and wait for all the fairy houses to light up. But Joy has never spent an entire night in the backyard, and she was a little bit worried. She knew that Socks, the neighborhood cat, sometimes passed by and she didn’t mind cats. From time to time there was a bunny who would crawl under the fence and indulge in the fresh grass. What Joy was a bit afraid of were the skunks. She knew very well that she wasn’t supposed to move if she ever encountered one. Skunks are very curious creatures, they want to know who you are and what you smell like, so they aren’t at all shy in coming closer to you. But if you move, they spray you and then you must bathe in tomato juice to get rid of the smell, at least that’s what mommy did when Joy’s cat was sprayed by a skunk. Joy didn’t fancy a bath in tomato juice at all. But she did want to go camping with Anna Banana. So, she decided that a small lantern will keep the skunks away and that was that. All fears were forgotten.”

Restul povestii poate fi citit pe site-ul meu de scriitoare. 

Ca de obicei, m-as bucura de reactiile voastre si ale copiilor.
