“Gate? What is it, Mommy?” asks Betsy.
“The gate to our plane. We need to find it in the airport,” Mother explains.
“Thank you very much!” Daddy says to the Lady.
“You are welcome. Have a nice flight!” The Lady says.
We go to the second floor of the airport on the elevator. We find our gate number eleven. We see a lot of other dogs near the gates.
“Now we need to take our seats and wait. Stewardess will invite us to get on a plane.” Mother explains.
“When the stewardess invites us, I will run very quickly to the plane. I want to be the first!” says Timmy.”
“Oh Timmy, Timmy,” says Mother, “Polite puppies do not run to the plane. They stay in line and wait for their turn to get on to the plane.”
“Waiting is boring,” says Timmy. “Running is fun!”
“But if everyone runs it is going to be dangerous,” says Father.”
“Oh,” says Timmy, “Travelling is not fun. There are too many rules!”
“Timmy, if you do not follow the rules travelling can be dangerous. But if you follow the rules, you can have a lot of fun and be safe!”
