All we have to do is find a telephone.” “No, we can’t do that!” wailed Candyfloss. “My mommy and daddy will never let me walk to school again!” Just then Candyfloss and Jim heard the sound of footsteps rustling in the grass. “Jim, what’s that noise?” asked Candyfloss, shaking. 2 “I don’t know,” said Jim. “But I think we’d better get out of here,” he said hurriedly. They began running across the grass when they heard a man’s voice calling to them. “Can I help you two kids? You seem to be lost.” “Well, I’m not,” replied Jim, “but my friend Candyfloss is.” “I can’t find my way home and my mommy and daddy were expecting me an hour ago!” sobbed Candyfloss. “Well,” said the policeman, “why don’t the two of you just get in my car and I’ll take you both home. And I’ll explain everything to your parents, Candyfloss.” “Oh, thank you, Mr. Policeman,” said Candyfloss, sniffling and wiping her eyes. They all got into the police car and headed for Candyfloss’ house. THE END
