The Lightning Boy

Jon and his friends played in the park. They heard thunder. "It is going to rain," said Jon. "Let's go home." "What's that?" asked Max.

They saw a glowing stone in the bush. "That's a strange stone," said Jon. He went up to pick it up. Jon's hair suddenly stood up! "Are you OK?" asked Max. "You look funny." "I feel fine," said Jon. "This stone is fun. I'm going to keep it."

At the gate, a mean dog growled at the children. "It looks angry." Lilly was afraid. "Sit! Doggie!" Jon patted the dog. But the dog puffed up like a balloon when Jon touched it. Then it whined and ran away.

"Wow!" said Max. "You're a Lightning Boy!" "Cool! This must be a lightning stone!" Jon was excited. "I will take a photo of you, Lightning Boy!" said Lilly. "Oh! My camera is out of power."

"Let me see," said Jon. He touched the battery. It worked. The battery was recharged. "It is great to be a Lightning Boy," laughed Jon. "Thank you! Lightning Boy!" said Lilly.
