  Kitty loves this video game. This is her

  favorite video game. It’s about a bunny who

  jumps over fences and grabs carrots.

  Kitty has been playing

  this game for five hours.

  Stop playing this game, Kitty!

  You have to do something else.

  If you play outside, draw a picture,

  and read a book, then you can play

  your video game again.

  No, Kitty! You have to play outside first.

  Kitty does not want to play outside.

  Kitty wants to play her video game.

  Now that she is outside,

  Kitty pretends she is a bunny.

  Kitty is very good at jumping.

  JUMP!

  Kitty pretends the

  leaves are carrots.

  Kitty is very good

  at grabbing. GRAB!

  JUMP!

  GRAB!

  JUMP!

  GRAB!

  GRAB!

  JUMP!

  JUMP!

  JUMP!

  GRAB!

  GRAB!

  That was fun!

  Now Kitty wants to

  play her video game.

  No, Kitty! You have to draw a picture first.

  Kitty does not want to draw a picture.

  Kitty wants to play her video game.

  First, Kitty draws a picture of

  a bunny grabbing carrots.

  But then Kitty draws a MONSTER bunny

  grabbing MONSTER carrots.

  That is a good drawing!

  Now Kitty wants to play her video game.

  No, Kitty! You have to read a book first.

  Kitty does not want to read a book.

  Kitty wants to play her video game.

  The book is about a bunny who

  sneaks into a garden to grab carrots.

  Oh, no! There’s a farmer!

  The farmer chases the bunny!

  EEK!

  WHEW!

  That was an exciting book!

  You played outside. You drew a picture.

  You read a book. Now you can play

  your game again, Kitty.

  Kitty does not like

  video games.
