Zintle and the Turtle (Suffix)

The river runs deep and green, and the people say a king lives at the bottom, watching all that passes above. When Zintle stops to help a stranded turtle, a thorn-stuck heron, and a catfish going dry, she never asks for thanks. So why does the river rise in the dead of the dry season and sweep away her family’s seeds? And what could a young weaver possibly offer the King of the Waters in return? This Bookbot level builds two-syllable words with suffixes, like ’lonely’, ‘kindly’, ‘swollen’, and ‘payment’.
