Jimmy’s Treasure
One night Jimmy fell asleep and had a dream about a treasure. In his dream, he saw a big box of gold
coins buried near the bushes in his backyard. The dream seemed so real to Jimmy. He began to think
that maybe there really was a treasure in his backyard, near the bushes.
The next morning Jimmy woke up and began to dig a hole. He kept digging. The hole got deeper. The
pile of dirt became higher.

Then jimmy got tired. He could not dig anymore. Then he saw something. It was a dog bone. Jimmy
was very sad because he did not find a treasure. For all his hard work, he had found only a dog bone.
But then, Jimmy’s mother came. She saw what Jimmy had done. She wanted to plant a rose bush in the
backyard. The hole Jimmy dug was in the perfect place. She was very happy. She gave him five dollars
for digging the hole. Jimmy smiled. He did get a treasure after all.
