The Parade
By: Sue Peterson



Read the story and infer the meanings of the underlined words. You may use a dictionary for this purpose.

My mother took my brother Bill and me to the fun parade on Monday. There were children who rode in cars in the parade and children who walked behind the cars. I saw three pretty white horses walking in the parade. I saw some big dogs running in the parade, too. I got plenty of candies from the clowns in the parade. The clowns had purple hats and big, orange pants. I saw a clown’s puppy with a purple hat and orange pants on it, too! After the parade, I ate my candy and I clapped and clapped. It was a fun parade to see with my brother and my mother. It was a fun parade to see the appealing horses, big dogs, clowns, and puppies with purple hats and orange pants, too!
