Coal On the coast, there are many steamboats to see. They float up the coast to the coal mines nearby. Men load up the coal and ship it to the trains. Trains take the coal to truck docks. There, they load the coal onto trucks. Trucks take the loads of coal from the docks to many homes. Men put coal into the fire to burn for heat. 1 2007 Danco Phonics Readers
My Goal My goal is to soak you when you come close to me. If I get you wet, you will want to soak me as well. You can try to catch me and throw me into the shallow part of the stream. I may tiptoe by you and grab your elbow. If I do, it will take two fellows to make me let you go. Two grown fellows are what it would take. 2 2007 Danco Phonics Readers

Snow Days Snow days cannot be beat! Does a hot day beat a snow day? No way! On snow days you can use sleds to slide back and forth on the snow. If you do not own a sled, you can borrow a sled from your pal. Or, you can throw snow at your pal on the hill below you. If you need to rest for a short time, you can drink a mug of cocoa. 4 2007 Danco Phonics Readers
