Fatima is always busy!
She loves
to run and play.

Her favourite part of the day is when Grandpa arrives.
“How should we spend our day, Fatima?” asks Grandpa.

“I know!” says Fatima. “Let’s go to the park.”

“I can see the whole world from up here,” Fatima shouts.

“I have an idea!”

“Let’s play superheroes
and pick up the litter,” says Fatima.

“Great stuff! Now you can see
all the flowers.”
“What’s next?” asks Grandpa.

“What a crazy cool kid you are!” says Grandpa. “What’s next?”

“Weeeeeeeee!”

“How about something
cold and delicious?” says Fatima.

“What’s next, kiddo?”
asks Grandpa.
Fatima yawns.
“Let’s go home.”

“Hello, Fatima,”
says Mum.
“What did
you and Grandpa
do today?”

“Not much!” they both say.

“What should we do tomorrow?” asks Fatima.

Fatima hurries to bed.
She is excited for her
next adventure with her best friend, Grandpa.
