Fig Pig Sees a Black Thing UFLI Foundations Lesson 51
Practice Words
Fig Pig has to stop. A tall black thing stands in the dim den. It has long, long legs.
Zing! A flash shoots up in the sky. Fig Pig sees the thing at the back, so tall and so still.
Fig Pig is strong. He wants to see what the thing did. Fig Pig and Player walk up the path to the den.
The thing is so tall in the dim den. Player hangs back. Fig Pig must not look at it. He stands still and talks to it.
The thing clings to a block. Zing! It is gone in a flash.
Fig Pig gets it. The thing hangs on to that block. "It just longs to stack blocks with us!" says Fig Pig.
A big thing with wings springs up in the sky. It can smash all the blocks! The tall thing is in shock. It screams and screams.
Fig Pig looks at the tall thing on the path. It is not mad, it is sad. It screams as it longs for a pal.
