Once upon a time there lived a little boy called Tommy. Tommy loved exploring outside. One day Tommy was playing in the garden when he saw a big red ant. Tommy wanted to touch the ant so he put out his hand and the ant bit him. It really hurt. Tommy was really surprised and he shouted: "Ouch, it's hot!"
Mummy heard Tommy shout and ran out of the house to see what was wrong. She saw the ant on Tommy's hand and she knew it had bitten him. She took Tommy inside and washed the bite with cold water. That made Tommy's hand feel better.
From then on Tommy was more careful when playing outside. He knew there could be lots of interesting things to see, but some of them could hurt!
