Kyril and Milenka are scientists.
They study fish and mammals in
the ocean. Sharks are big fish. Orcas
are ocean mammals. Orcas eat fish
and other animals. They live in
families. They swim fast.
Kyril is in the ocean. He’s scuba-
diving. He’s studying orcas. The
orcas are curious. They watch
him. He studies them. Milenka has
a special camera. She needs it to
take photos under water.
“We come to the ocean every
day,” says Milenka. “The orcas
know us. They aren’t scared. Some
people are scared of orcas. They call
them ‘killer whales’. But I’m not
scared of them. They don’t hurt
me.”

Mr. García’s cat, Kitty. It’s miaowing.
Kitty hardly ever miaows. Victor looks
into Mr. García’s yard. Mr. García is
an old man. Victor sometimes helps
him. Mr. García usually sits outside.
But Victor can’t see him. Kitty jumps

“Dad! Where’s Mr. García?”
“Mr. García always goes to the store
on Saturday.”

Every year in Harbin, China, there’s
a festival of ice and snow. This is
the
ice city. It wasn’t here in fall. Imagine!
All these amazing buildings weren’t
here. This was a field!
The ice is from the Songhua River.
It was water in summer! But now, in
winter, it’s ice. The statues were
big blocks of ice and snow. Now
they’re beautiful sculptures of
people and animals.
Harbin is very cold in winter. But in
spring, it gets warm. The ice melts.
There was an amazing city of snow
and ice here. But now it’s water
again. It wasn’t a dream! Come back
next winter!

It was Uncle Joe’s wedding
yesterday! We weren’t at my
house. We were at Grandma’s house.
All my cousins were there. It was
hot and sunny. The wedding cake
was very big, but my favourite
thing was a beautiful statue made
of ice. It was a swan and it was
amazing. At the
end of the evening, the statue wasn’t
there! It wasn’t ice. It was water

I asked my Grandma about when she
was a child.
Grandma talked about her toys.
She didn’t play computer games.
She played board games with her
sisters and brothers. They listened to
music on big, round records, or they
to the radio.
They usually played outside
with their friends. They played
games like skipping and
hopscotch. Her
brothers climbed trees and fished. All
the neighborhood children played
together.
Many things are different now.
I don’t listen to records, but I
play outside with my friends! I
listen to the radio, and I watch
TV. I play computer games,
too!

A giant had a beautiful garden. He
didn’t want to share it.
“This garden is mine!” he said. He
built a big wall.
One day, the giant found a
kite. “Whose kite is this?” he
shouted.
“It’s mine,” said a voice. The giant
saw a brother and sister.
“It isn’t his. It’s ours,” said the girl.
“We share it.”
“Well, this garden isn’t yours,” said
the rude giant. “Go away!”
Later, the giant saw the children
playing. It looked fun! The giant felt
lonely. Then he had an idea.
He called to the children, “The
garden is mine, and the kite is yours.
We can share!”
So the children played with the
giant, and they were friends.

“Oh, Nabil!” said Mom. “Our apartment is
small and cats need a garden.”
Nabil thought. “Can I have a bird? ”
“No, you can’t. Birds are noisy and

Nabil asked, “May I have a snake?
They’re quiet.”
“No, you may not! They’re quiet, but
they’re dangerous.”
“A mouse isn’t dangerous. Can I get a

There’s a field in front of our house.
Animals live in the field.
There’s a pond across from the
field. The
animals go to the pond. But there’s
a road between the field and
the pond. It’s dangerous for
them.
Dad had an idea. He dug a tunnel
under the road. He worked hard!
Dad has a small camera. The camera
is behind a tree, next to the
tunnel. We can watch on Dad’s
computer. The animals go into
the tunnel.
When the animals are in the
tunnel, the cars are above them on
the road. Now the animals can go
to the pond safely!

For centuries, we used horses for
transportation. A horse is stronger
than a person, and it can pull a
wagon. The wagon’s wheels make a
heavy load easier to pull.
Then people started to use canals.
Canal transportation was slow,
but the boats carried more
things. A canal boat is bigger and
heavier than a wagon. The boat is on
water. Water makes the heavy load
easier to pull. A hundred years
ago, canals and horses were very
important.
Now we don’t use horses. We use
highways and trucks. Trucks have

way to travel. The fastest passenger

Big ships carry things across oceans
and through very big canals. It’s

and canals!
