Roxy Is Scared

Roxy ls Scared

It was late at night in Metro City Park. In the lake the frogs croaked softly. Suddenly a bright object fell from the sky. It splashed into the lake. The water bubbled up and turned purple. Ribbit! Ribbit! The next day Roxy and her friends were in the woods in Metro City Park.

“ Look at me! “ called Terrell from the top of a giant boulder. “ I'm taller than everyone! “ “ I'm coming up there! “ said Mara. " Me too! " said Roxy. The two girls started climbing up. ” Not me. ” said Jack. “ I don't like high places. "

” You're scared of high places?” asked Mara. “ I'm not scared, “ said Jack. “ I just don't like being high up. “ Terrell shrugged. “ That's okay, ” he said. ” I don’t like the dark. ” “ I'm scared of monsters, ” said Mara. ” Especially ones with fangs! ”

“ That's not a problem, “ said Terrell. “ Rocket Girl can protect us from monsters. “ He looked at Roxy. “ What are you afraid of, Roxy?” Just then Mara called out. “ Oh look! I see a frog under those leaves! ” Mara jumped down and picked up the small frog. Terrell and Jack walked over.

“ Eww! Eww! “ said Roxy. ” What's wrong?” asked Mara. “ Keep that frog away from me, “ said Roxy “ Gross! ” ” So you're scared of frogs?" said Jack. “ I'm not scared, “ said Roxy uneasily. “ I just think they're . . . gross. “ “ Maybe Rocket Girl can help you, “ said Terrell.
