Down the river Adventure
On a sunny morning, Lucas and his playful dog Cody set off to explore the river near their village. The water sparkled under the sun, and Lucas couldn’t resist jumping in. Cody splashed alongside him, barking with excitement as they swam and played.
As they reached a calm part of the river, Lucas noticed a girl sitting on a rock with a fishing rod. She had braided hair, a straw hat, and a bucket with small fish.
“Hi there!” Lucas called out, waving.
The girl smiled. “Hi! You and your dog look like you’re having fun.”
“We are! I’m Lucas, and this is Cody. What’s your name?”
“I’m Zoe,” she said. “I come here to fish. It’s my favorite spot.”
Lucas swam closer. “Can you teach me how to fish?”
“Sure,” Zoe laughed. “But Cody has to promise not to scare the fish away!”
For the next hour, Zoe showed Lucas how to cast a line and wait patiently. Cody tried to “help” by barking at every ripple, making them laugh until their sides hurt.
Suddenly, Zoe’s fishing rod bent. “I’ve got something!” she exclaimed. Lucas watched in awe as she reeled in a shiny, wriggling fish.
“Wow, that’s amazing!” Lucas said.
“Thanks! But I think I’ll let it go,” Zoe said, releasing the fish gently back into the water.
As the sun set, painting the sky with orange and pink, the three sat by the riverbank, sharing Lucas’s snacks and telling stories. They laughed and talked, promising to meet again for more adventures.
From that day on, Lucas, Cody, and Zoe became the best of friends, making memories by the river—a place that became their special spot for fun, friendship, and adventure.
