👵 Grandma's Visit

Grandma came to stay for the weekend.

She wanted to bake banana bread with Omar.

But Grandma forgot her glasses. "I can't read the recipe!" she said.

"I can read it," said Omar. He read each step out loud.

They mashed bananas, mixed and poured.

The banana bread was delicious, and Grandma said Omar was a great reader.
