Read together
Once upon a time, there was a little boy who loved to ride his bike. One day while riding, he suddenly hit a big hole in the road and fell off his bike. But the little boy was lucky, because he had brought along his trusty bat. He used the bat to dig a way out of the hole.
As he was walking home, he saw a car stuck in a ditch. The little boy offered to help by using his bat to dig the car out. The driver was so grateful that she gave him a pot full of gold coins as a reward.
The little boy was overjoyed and decided to use the pot full of coins to buy a brand new bike. But on his way home, he stumbled upon a log and lost all the coins from the pot.
Feeling sad, the little boy picked up his bat and started hitting the log, when suddenly, a genie appeared. The genie granted the little boy three wishes. The little boy wished for a new bike, a pot full of gold coins, and that he would never fall into a hole again while riding his bike.
And with a poof, the genie disappeared, and the little boy was left with his new bike, a pot full of gold coins, and a smile on his face. From that day on, he rode his bike everywhere and never fell into another hole again. The end.
