2 The River Rats make sure the water is clean and safe for fish and people.
And now I’m big enough to help take care ofthe river too.
3 The first thing we do is pick up trash. Myfriends and| find bottle caps,
cans, and even old tires. Trash makesthe river dirty and unsafe for people
and wildlife.
5 It’s important to keep the river clean. We teach people visiting the river to
take their trash with them when they leave. Now people don't throw as
manythings in the water. Maybe one day we won'tfind anytrashatall.

° After we pick up the trash,it’s time for the job | like best—looking for
water bugs! The bugs like to dig into the mud androcksat the river
bottom. So first we do a funny bug dancein the water to kick up the rocks.
Then wecatch the bugs that come out. Next, we see what kind theyare.
Some bugs don’t care how dirty the wateris. But other bugs can only live
hereif the water is clean. If we find lots of bugs that need clean water, then
we knowthe river is clean enough for fish and people. Last, we put the
bugs backin the water. We wantthere to belots of bugs for the fish to eat.
” After that,it’s time for swimming! | love being a River Rat. We help make
the Jack’s Fork a clean and safe place toplay.

A GoodSign
Mr. and Mrs. Crab were making a new walkwayin their front yard.
“K little to the left, a bit to the right, there!” Mrs. Crab said. Mr. Crab put
the last rock carefully into place. The Crabs tapped their claws together in
a high-five. Then they stood back and smiled at their work.
2 Twolines of rocks made a walkwayto their front door. The sand was
nice and neat. Not one thing was outof place.
3 Just then,a bell rang. It was recess at the Sea School. Mr. and Mrs. Crab
hurried inside. Outside, there was a storm of water and sand. The Crabs’
yard became a wild mix of yellows and blues and reds as the young fish
played tag around their home.
4 When recess ended, Mr. Crab looked outside. He disliked what he saw.
5 “What should we do aboutthese fish?” Mr. Crab asked. “They think our
yard is a park?”
7 The next morning, Mr. and Mrs. Crab remade their walkway. Then they
put up a sign. It read, “KEEP OFF THE SAND?
8 The bell rang and the fish came out. They stopped whenthey saw the
sign. “I guess we aren't wanted here,’ one said. Theyall left.
0 Days passed. Mr. and Mrs. Crab had a neat yard now. But something
was missing.
