Sara was a little girl who liked to point at things. She pointed at the birds in the sky, the flowers in the garden, and the toys in her room. She liked to ask her mom and dad what they were and learn new words.
One day, Sara saw a shiny thing in the corner of her room. She pointed at it and asked, "What is that?" Her mom and dad did not hear her. They were busy in the kitchen. Sara was persistent. She wanted to know what the shiny thing was. She got out of her bed and walked to the corner of her room.
The shiny thing was a scissors. Sara did not know what a scissors was. She picked it up and felt the sharp blades. She thought they were pretty. She pointed them at her face and looked at them. She wanted to see how they worked. She opened and closed them. She did not see the danger.
The scissors slipped from her hand and cut her eye. Sara screamed in pain and fear. Blood dripped from her face. Her mom and dad heard her and ran to her room. They saw what happened and were very scared and sad. They called for help and took Sara to the hospital. Sara lost her eye and could not see well anymore. She wished she had not pointed at the shiny thing. She learned a hard lesson.
