Becky was visiting Aunt Agatha at her house at the

beach. It was a beautiful summer day. Becky had built a
giant sand castle that morning. Aunt Agatha took
pictures of the castle to send to Becky’s parents. It was
a great big sand castle. Later that morning, Becky and
Aunt Agatha went swimming in the ocean. It was fun to
jump with the waves. Then, they went in the house and
ate sandwiches and strawberries for lunch.
Becky wanted to play on the beach that afternoon. Aunt
Agatha told her it was too hot to go outside without a
hat on. Becky didn’t have a hat. Aunt Agatha told her not
to worry, she could wear one of hers. Becky tried on
four hats. The pink one was really pretty, but it had a big
bow in the back that was too long for Becky. The green
hat was too fancy for Becky. She did not like that hat at all. The blue hat was nice, but
it had an ugly bird on it. Then, Becky saw a big brown hat with a yellow ribbon on it.
That hat was made of straw. It was a perfect hat for the beach. It was too big for
Becky’s head but she didn’t care. It was a great hat.
