Carly has a big umbrella that she likes to use on
rainy days. She got the umbrella 3 years ago.
Carly’s friend Jill gave her the umbrella. Carly’s
umbrella is teal and purple, and the handle is
silver. The umbrella is so big that 4 kids can fit
under it! When other kids forget their umbrellas,
Carly lets them share her umbrella. The other kids
think her umbrella is really cool. Before she got
her umbrella, Carly did not like to walk home from
school on rainy days. She would ask her mom to
pick her up from school. Now that she has a big
umbrella, Carly loves to walk home from school. Jill
usually walks home with Carly. The girls love watching the rain fall down the
edges of the umbrella.
