Dana and the Party

Dana the dolphin swam quickly through the water. She hurried past the turtles and the fish.

Three starfish spied her from the shore and smiled.

She replied to their smile with a happy leap above the water.

Her tricks always made the starfish giggle. They thought she was the funniest dolphin in the sea.

The starfish asked, ''Dana, are you ready for the party?''

Dana cried, "Yikes! I forgot! I was too busy working on my tricks.

She turned around and hurried back to her home to get ready.

Her buddies the turtles, were waiting for her.

Dana thanked her buddies and hurried to the park where the party would be.

The starfish clapped when they saw Dana returning.

All of the sea critters started to prep for the party.

But Dana was uneasy, she forgot the seaweed. ''It is okay Dana. We have plenty to eat. The party will be wonderful.'' they said.

The party was a a lot of fun.

Dana performed her tricks and all critters laughed. She was the funniest dolphin in the sea.

Although she did not bring the seaweed, her friends did not mind.

Dana was the happiest she had ever been.

After the party, Dana and her friends cleaned up.

They took the party supplies back to her home.

Sleepy but happy, Dana thanked her friends and said goodnight.

She realized that even if she made mistakes, her friends still loved her.

The next day, Dana woke up feeling happier than ever.

She spent the day working on her tricks and playing with her friends.

From that day on, she always remembered to bring the seaweed to parties.

She felt like the luckiest dolphin in the sea for having such wonderful friends.
