“We enjoyed that!” said Mona.


          “Shall we climb that hill there?” asked Prem.

          “Yes, let’s go,” said Mona and Anu. They climbed the hill along with Uncle Pai.


          “This is a very high hill, isn’t it?” said Anu.

          “Yes, it is. We are at the top,” said Prem.


          “Look at the sea. It looks beautiful, doesn’t it?” said Anu.

          “But I can’t see the waves. It’s very quiet here. I want to play with the waves,” said Prem.


          “All right. Let’s go down. You could have a swim in the sea too,” said  Uncle Pai.

          The children quickly climbed down the hill and went towards the sea.


          “Enjoy yourself, but be careful,” said Uncle Pai.

          ”Okay uncle, we’ll be careful,” they said.


          The children ran towards the waves. Their dog, Snoopy followed them. Uncle Pai

          rested in a cool, shady place while the children played. They had lots of fun. The big
          waves came up to their necks and almost lifted them up.


          Mona and Anu made some sand castles. They watched how
                                                                                        What were Mona and Anu
          the waves washed them away. Prem moved further into the                       doing with the sand?
          sea. He went up and down with the waves. “This is great fun,”

          he thought. Suddenly a big wave rolled in and before he could step back, it had swept

          him off his feet into the sea.

          He gave out a loud cry. Snoopy saw the danger.


          The brave dog ran into the water and swam towards Prem. He finally managed to
          reach him. He caught Prem’s shorts between his teeth and pulled him safely back to

          the shore !


          Uncle Pai went up to Prem and said, “Oh dear, you should have been careful. Thank
          God, you’re safe!”


          “I am sorry, uncle,” Prem said and burst into tears.

          “But you shouldn’t have gone so far, Prem,” said Anu.

                                                                                                               85
