Hello everyone. Today we're reading Mighty Maddie by Stuart J. Murphy. Madeline Grace said, Mom, your birthday party starts in two hours. Just look at this house. There are toys everywhere. The mom is right. There were toys in the living room, toys in the kitchen, and toys in the front hallway. There were even toys in the bathroom. Teeny and jumbo don't have to pick up their toys, said Maddie. Dogs and cats don't know any better, said Mom. But you do. You're a big girl now. Teeny and jumbo. Come on Maddie, said Dad. I'll help. I'll carry the heavy things up to your room, and you can carry the light things. But then you have to clean up all your own bedroom. That's the biggest mess of all. I'll take this big box of books, said Dad. It's so heavy I can hardly lift it. These two books are late, said Maddie. I can carry them. Your piggy bank is small, said Dad. But it must be full because it sure is heavy. This pillow is big, but it's very light. I can handle it, said Maddie proudly. Heavy light. Before long, all of Maddie's toys were in her room. You have to do the rest, Maddie, said Dad. Fill up these boxes with your toys, and call me when you're finished. I'll lift them onto your closet shelf. They'll be very heavy for you. Boy said Maddie. This is one huge mess. It looks like a job for mighty Maddie. You'd better stay out of the way, Teeny and jumbo said mighty Maddie. You're nice and light, Teeny, but you're so heavy, jumbo. But this dumb truck is heavy, grown to mighty Maddie. But this fire truck is even heavier. Heavy, heavier. My ballerina Tutu is very light, she added. But these feathers are even lighter. Better hurry up, Maddie. Mom called from downstairs. Your friends will be here any minute. Mighty Maddie cleaned up faster than anybody had ever cleaned up before. Heavy, heavy, light. Heavy, heavier, light, lighter. Mom, Dad, Maddie called. I'm all done. Mom and Dad came up to see. Amazing, said Dad. You're not only finished in time, but you move those boxes with your heavy toys in them all by yourself. You really are mighty Maddie. Just then Bingbong the doorbell rang. Mighty Smart said mighty Maddie. All the toys are under the bed. And mighty Maddie had her birthday party. Good, and that was mighty Maddie. Are you mighty? I hope you liked it, and I'll see you next time. Bye!
