A fascinating story
2c

Steve: What are you looking at, Grandad?
Grandad: It’s a scrapbook of my adventure.
Look, there's a photo of me.
Steve: Where did you go?
Grandad: I went to the desert. One day I decided to go on an exciting journey. I looked at a map
of the world and I chose the Sahara Desert. I took my luggage, my passport and a return
ticket and left.
Steve: How did you get there?
Grandad: First, I flew on a fast plane and then I went slowly by car to a village next to the desert.
Next, I met a man called Assam and he wanted to show me the desert. The first day was
very hot, but the desert was beautiful. Then on the second day a terrible thing happened.
Steve: What happened?
Grandad: When I woke up early in the morning, Assam was very ill. He had a temperature
and he felt sick. He needed a doctor quickly. So I went alone across the desert.
Steve: How did you feel?
Grandad: I was scared. But I knew I had to help Assam. I walked for hours. Luckily, I had
a compass and I used it to go west towards the village. Finally, I found the
village. Assam’s brother and I rode camels back into
the desert. We found Assam and we took him back
to his village. It was a great adventure with a happy
ending.
