Anna and Ben are friends. They like to walk and play outside. One day, they see a big mountain far away. They want to go there and see what is on top.
"Can we walk to the mountain, Mom?" Anna asks.
"It is too far, Anna. You will get tired and hungry," Mom says.
"But we want to see the mountain, Mom. Please, please, please," Ben says.
Mom thinks for a moment. She smiles and says, "OK, but we need to take a bus first. The bus will take us closer to the mountain. Then we can walk a little bit and have a picnic."
Anna and Ben are happy. They say, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best."
They get ready and go to the bus stop. They wait for the bus. They see many cars and people and dogs and birds. They talk and laugh and sing.
Soon, the bus comes. They get on the bus and find a seat. They look out the window and see the mountain getting bigger and bigger. They are excited.
The bus stops near the mountain. They get off the bus and follow Mom. They walk on a path that goes up and up. They see trees and flowers and rocks and animals. They say hello to a rabbit and a squirrel and a bird. They take pictures and collect stones and leaves.
They reach a nice spot with a view of the mountain. They sit down and open their backpacks. They have sandwiches and fruits and cookies and juice. They eat and drink and enjoy the view.
They are happy. They are lucky. They have a good day. They love the mountain. They love Mom. They love each other.
