Short Story: Max’s Big Adventure
One sunny morning, Max the puppy woke up in his cozy bed. He stretched and looked out of the window. The sun was shining in the sky! Max jumped on the couch and barked excitedly.
He saw his favorite ball under the table. He ran toward it and pushed it into the corner. Then, he found his bone next to his food bowl. He picked it up and hid it behind the chair.
After playing, Max was tired. He curled up on his bed and fell asleep in the afternoon. What a fun day for Max!
