The Missing Lunch Box
Jonah opened his cubby and frowned because his lunch box was gone. He checked under his desk and inside his backpack, but it was not there. His friend Rina remembered seeing it near the art table. The two students followed a trail of crayons and found the lunch box beside a pile of paper. Jonah thanked Rina for helping, and the pair made it to lunch just in time.
