The Loud Hound
I heard a loud sound.
I looked out the door.
A big hound was running round and round the yard!
He ran so fast his ears went up and out.
Then he stopped. He put his nose on the ground.
He found something! A mouse!
The mouse ran. The hound ran.
The mouse hid. The hound could not find it.
The hound sat down and let out a loud howl.
I think the mouse won.
