Story 24. First Babysitter.
Emily is ten years old.
One day, her next-door neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Paulin, were going to a show.
They asked if Emily wanted to babysit their son.
Emily loved children, and she loved to have extra money to buy her favourite things.
She gladly said yes.
That day, the little boy wanted to cry when he saw his parents leave.
He didn't want to let them go.
Emily said to him, Do you want to guess what is in my hand?
The boy looked at Emily curiously.
Emily played a magic game with him.
Soon, he forgot all about his parents leaving.
Then, they played games, read books, had snacks, and went to the playground.
When Mr. and Mrs. Paulin came home, the boy said, I had a great day with the babysitter.
I want her to come back again.
