“What are those pink things on your feet?” Mom asked.
“Well.” Ellie said.
“They’re ice skates to help me whoosh across the icy lake. The hallway is actually an icy lake. Yay! I’m
safely across. Now they are hiking books
so I can climb over the mountain. This,
the…the rug here is a mountain. And at
the top I need skis to slide down the mountain.
Now they are roller-skates so I can skate to town. I need to go shopping. I need to get groceries. See the couch…I…I…I mean the store has all my
food and toys and all kinds of stuff.
Now they’re shoes so I can walk home.”
Ellie yawns big, stretching her arms over her head. “Now they’re slippers so I can go night
night.”
“Wow. Those
are amazing slippers.” Mom said hugging
Ellie.
