4 Winter Sports

CHAPTER 4 WINTER SPORTS MY HEAD IS TOO SMALL Eric calls. He's all excited. He talks like the circus is coming to town instead of a blizzard. HUBIE IT'S ERIC I LOVE SNOW. BURP!

"Come on, Hubie. There's so much we can do!" he says. "Like what?" I ask. "Winter sports," he answers. "You mean like shoveling out the driveway and slipping on the ice?" THIS IS NOT FUN ONCE YOU'RE DONE WITH OUR DRIVEWAY YOU CAN DO THE NEIGHBOR'S.

"No, like sledding and ice skating and skiing," he explains. "It'll be great!" WEEEE! HA! HA! HA!

"I like my sports played on reliable surfaces-solid, non-skid surfaces." "Boy," sighs Eric, "you don't know what fun is!" HUBIE, IF YOU WANT YOUR OL SOCCER BALL, COME OUT HERE ON THE ICE AND GET IT. I'M STUCK! MY FEET ARE COLD.

THANKS FOR MAKING ME, BUT COULD I HAVE A DIFFERENT HAT?
