One day, Audrey decided to go and visit her aunt. She ate a little cake, drank some
lemonade and had a lot of fun at her aunt's place.
I must go home now. It's getting dark, she thought. She put on her coat and bade goodbye to her aunt. Audrey’s house was just a ten-minute walk from her aunt's.
As she walked, Audrey started humming. There were five days left for her birthday. She was busy thinking about what she would do when suddenly she bumped into a tree. She looked around and didn't know where she was. She had lost her way.
“Oh,” she wailed, “I don’t know where I am.” She sat under the tree and started sobbing. Suddenly, she felt a dog licking her face.
“Oh, Buddy! I am glad you found me.”
“Just then, her father appeared with a torch and picked her up in his arms. He said,
“Audrey, you must come home before it’s dark. We were SO worried.”
Audrey wiped her tears and gave her dad a big hug. After that day, she always returned home before dark.
