One evening, a little boy named Tim and his dog, Spot, went to the park to play. They liked to play a game where Tim would push a ball and Spot would run fast to catch it. They were having so much fun together.
Suddenly, a big bird flew down and picked up the ball in its beak. "Hey, that's my ball!" Tim yelled. Spot barked at the bird, but the bird just flew higher and higher with the ball. Tim and Spot didn't know what to do.
Just then, a girl named Sue came running over. "I can help you get your ball back!" she said. Sue had a big bunch of balloons in her hand. She tied the balloons to Tim and Spot, and they started to float up into the air. They flew up to the big bird and said, "Please give us our ball back!" The bird was nice and gave the ball back to Tim and Spot. They all became friends and played together until it was time to go home.
