My First Sleepover

　　Last fall, I had my first sleepover.

　　I slept over at my friend Steve’s house.

　　It was so much fun!

　　“Jim, here is your sleeping bag. Have fun!”

　　“See you tomorrow, Mom.”

　　“Hi, Jim! Let’s ride on our rollerblades.”

　　“OK, Steve! Let’s ride on the sidewalk.”

　　“Hey! Watch me turn around!”

　　“Yeah! Watch me jump!”

　　Later, Steve’s mom called us into the house.

　　“Come in! Time to eat pizza!”

　　“This is really yummy!”

　　After we ate pizza, we played the computer game, too.

　　“Come on! Come on!”

　　“Now, it is time to sleep. Let me turn off the lights.

　　Don’t stay up and talk. You will be tired tomorrow.

　　“Good night!”

　　“Good night!”

　　But we couldn’t sleep. We giggled! And giggled!

　　And giggled, again!

　　“Shh! This time, go to sleep! Good night!”

　　“OK. Good night!”

　　We felt very tired! But suddenly, we heard a strange

　　sound by the closet! “What was that?”

　　We were scared.

　　We heard the sound, again!

　　“Ooh!”

　　“There might be a monster in the closet!”

　　“Oh, no!”

　　My friend pulled his blanket over his head.

　　I pulled my blanket over my head, too.

　　“Did you hear that sound, again?”

　　“I’m scared! I want my mommy!”

　　He did not want to look! But soon, it was quiet.

　　So, I peeked out from under the covers.

　　“Guess what?

　　It is just your guinea pig!”

　　It got out of its cage.

　　We both laughed!

　　But soon, we both snored!

　　The next morning, my mom came to pick me up.

　　“Was it fun?” “Terrific! Mom, can I invite Steve to sleep
