                              SToP Pulling my hair

          Camila is 5 years old. She loves going

          to the park with Bruno, her father.

          They play ball  and  spend hours

          in the playground. On a good  day,

          Bruno lets Camila buy a treat from

          the small snack truck.

          One day, after  playing all  afternoon  in the park, Bruno and

          Camila stop at the truck for a treat. Bruno buys an apple for

          himself. Camila gets a granola bar

          and some bubble gum.

          When  they  finished  their  snacks,

          they begin to walk home.

          “I’m  tired,”  says Camila.  “Can  you

          carry me?”

          “You’re pretty big to be carried! Let’s try this,” says Bruno as he

          lifts Camila and puts her on his shoulders.

          After a few minutes, Camila starts pulling her father’s hair.

          “Ouch!” says Bruno. “Stop pulling my hair. It hurts!”

          “But Dad,” she says, “I’m only trying to get my gum out.”
