🐹 The Class Pet Escape

On Monday morning, the class pet's cage was empty.

"Peanut is gone!" cried Jada.

Mr. Bell asked everyone to look carefully.

Luis saw a little trail of sunflower seeds on the floor.

The class followed the trail to the reading corner.

There was Peanut, asleep in a pile of pillows!

Have you ever looked for clues to solve a problem?
